Why 3D scanning and point clouds

Previously, source data for design was collected manually: selective measurements, photos and drawings “by points”. Now the facility is captured as a whole — as a point cloud — and becomes a digital twin you can use for design, as-designed vs as-built comparison, and remote work.

Before

Traditional surveys and inspection

Source data for design is collected manually: selective measurements of key points and object elements are taken, then geometry is reconstructed in a CAD environment.

Field work ⏱ 2–10+ days

Measurements are performed using tape measures, laser distance meters and total stations. Main dimensions and characteristic points of the object are recorded.

Downside: if data is incomplete, additional measurements or another site visit may be required.

Office processing ⏱ 3–7+ days

The collected data is transferred to CAD and used to build plans, sections and measured drawings.

Downside: part of the geometry is reconstructed by interpreting measurements, which can lead to discrepancies.

Method limitations ⏱ rework risk

When geometry capture is incomplete, some deviations are discovered at the construction or installation stage.

Downside: discovering mismatches late in the project increases timelines and cost.

Typical outcome 2D surveys + selective dimensions
Main risk incomplete data, human factor and repeat site visits
Now

3D scanning + point cloud

We capture the object as a whole: millions of measurements automatically become an accurate digital copy. From it we build drawings, 3D/BIM and perform analysis.

Object scanning ⏱ hours

A laser scanner captures geometry automatically (point cloud). We can also perform photography for texturing.

Upside: the full object geometry is captured without selective measurements.

Point cloud processing ⏱ 1–3 days*

Registration and stitching of scans, noise filtering, geo-referencing. Output: a single accurate point cloud suitable for analysis and modeling.

Upside: the point cloud can be reused without another site visit.

Model / BIM / drawings ⏱ 2–7 days*

From the point cloud we create polygon meshes, 3D models and BIM. We produce plans/sections, as-designed vs as-built comparison, bills of quantities and reports.

Upside: deviations and clashes can be detected before construction starts.

What changes for the project

  • Time to obtain source data: hours instead of days and weeks.
  • Completeness: the full object geometry is captured.
  • Fewer site visits: all data is stored in the point cloud.
  • Control: deviations are detected before construction starts.
  • Reuse: analysis without rescanning.

* Processing and modeling timelines depend on object area, geometry complexity and the required level of detail (LOD).

Market segments we work in

3D scanning for reconstruction and restoration

Reconstruction

Building reconstruction with 3D scanning and Scan to BIM

We capture the current condition of a building or structure, then perform visual restoration of the historical appearance, and only after that convert the model to BIM. This sequence helps accurately calculate estimates and work volumes and prepare an object passport for the client.

Engineering and construction

Point clouds and Scan to BIM for construction

We integrate laser scanning and BIM modeling into the object lifecycle — from surveys to operations. Point clouds and digital twins help detect clashes, control deviations and make precise decisions without unnecessary site visits.

Digital copies of energy facilities

Energy

Digital twins of energy facilities

We build high-accuracy 3D models of energy facilities — from substations to CHP plants. Scanning helps detect defects, monitor wear and plan modernization without stopping production, reducing accident risks and repair costs.

3D scanning for shipbuilding and ship repair

Ship repair

Ship hull 3D scanning for shipbuilding and repair

We digitize ship hulls, dock areas, sections and ship systems at 1:1 scale for early detection of deformations and clashes. A digital model helps plan repair and assembly without idle dock time and repeated measurements.

Digital topographic maps based on DEM

Topography

Digital topographic maps from DEM/DSM

We create accurate topographic maps from digital elevation models (DEM/DSM), LiDAR data and aerial photogrammetry. We show terrain, utilities, buildings and plot boundaries at the required scale. The result is a ready base for design, cadastre and approvals.

Operational analytics for emergencies

Incident zone 3D scanning for emergency response

We provide color point clouds and 3D maps of the incident zone for operational headquarters and emergency response units. Scanning, data transfer and visualization run near real time. This helps coordinate rescue operations, assess risks and make decisions based on an accurate digital model of the situation without putting personnel at risk.

3D documentation of events and evidence

Law enforcement

Crime scene 3D scanning and digital evidence

We provide law enforcement agencies with an accurate digital reconstruction of events. Color point clouds and 3D models record the position of objects and evidence with coordinate referencing. Data is stored in an immutable digital form and is suitable for analysis, expertise and building an evidentiary package.
