Architects & Engineers: 3D Scanning & Existing-Condition Documentation

Scan to BIM, Building Measurements, CAD Documentation, As-Built Surveys,
Floor Plans, Elevation Analysis, and Existing-Condition Modeling for renovation,
retrofit, adaptive reuse, and facility modernization projects.

The Existing-Condition Problem Architects & Engineers Need to Solve

Successful renovation and design projects depend on accurate existing-condition information. Incomplete documentation, outdated drawings, inaccessible areas, coordination challenges, and unknown field conditions can lead to design revisions, change orders, delays, and repeated site visits.

Reduce Design Uncertainty

Establish a dependable field-verified baseline before design begins, helping teams reduce assumptions and avoid preventable coordination issues.

Improve Project Coordination

Provide architects, structural engineers, MEP consultants, contractors, and owners with a consistent set of point clouds, CAD drawings, BIM models, and visual references.
