No surprises and no "we'll see as we go": below is exactly what happens, in what order, how long it takes and — most importantly — what you do and what we do at every step.
The address, the type of building, the approximate floor area and the deliverables you need — through the form or by phone. The more we know, the more precise the quote is from the start.
We analyse the building (satellite imagery included), size the work and send you the quote with the price, the delivery deadline and the scanning plan. If we have questions, we call you first.
The team arrives with all the equipment. You give us access — that's it. Then we work on the move, room by room, without moving furniture and without stopping the activity inside the building.
The field data enters production on two parallel streams: the LiDAR scan becomes the colorized point cloud of the building, while the drone imagery becomes, through photogrammetry, the 3D model of the exterior and the georeferenced orthophoto. Then we align everything into a single unified model and validate every zone — the ±2 cm accuracy at 10 m is not a promise, it is a check we actually carry out.
From the point cloud we extract the interior floor plans, level by level: we set out the building axes, dimension the rooms, the wall thicknesses, the door and window openings. This is the skeleton of the entire documentation — drawn on measured data, not on on-site approximations.
We rebuild the BIM model element by element (LOD 300) — the facades, the interior or both, according to your project's requirements — then extract the final drawings: facades with axes, dimensions and heights, characteristic sections, roof plan.
We hand over the technical files, organized in clear folders: point cloud (E57, XYZ, RCP/RCS), BIM model (RVT, IFC, PLN), drawings (DWG, DXF, PDF). And you explore the 3D models through an online viewing link — hosted in the cloud by us, so your whole team can open them in a browser, with no installation.
All the delivered files — point cloud, BIM model, drawings — remain yours for good. When the hosting period from the quote ends, the online virtual tour is archived. You can reactivate it at any time, for a fee, for the period you need — as long as the project is in our archive.
Drag left–right: on the left the real building everything starts from, on the right the CAD drawing it ends with. And below — the numbers of the journey, in short (tap them):
All the data is collected in one visit. A forgotten dimension no longer means a trip — you extract it from the point cloud, straight from the office.
A clear quote before the start, verification of full coverage while still on site, and control of every drawing against the point cloud before handover.
E57 · XYZ · RCP/RCS · RVT · IFC · PLN · DWG · DXF · PDF — plus the online viewing link for the 3D models.
The tour is live for the period in the quote, then it is archived. You can reactivate it for a fee, for the interval you need, as long as the project is in our archive.
The form has the fields ready — service, floor area, town. Not sure about something? Leave it blank, we'll ask. Any remaining questions come from us too, if needed.
Open the form →You don't move furniture, you don't empty the building, you don't stop your schedule. The team works discreetly around your activity, and at the end we check together that everything was covered.
You open the organized folders, explore the 3D model online and ask questions. The delivered files are yours for good, and the tour stays live for the period agreed in the quote.
On-site scanning takes between one day and about a week, depending on the area and complexity of the building. Processing, BIM modelling and extracting the drawings take from a few days to a few weeks — the exact deadline is stated in the quote, before we start.
No. Scanning is done on the move, room by room, without moving furniture and without blocking access — the activity carries on as normal.
Almost nothing: access to every room that has to be documented and, ideally, the spaces arranged the way you want them to appear. We take care of the rest, including the flight permits for the drone.
You receive the technical files organized clearly — point cloud (E57, XYZ, RCP/RCS), BIM model (RVT, IFC, PLN), drawings (DWG, DXF, PDF) — and you explore the 3D models through an online viewing link, hosted in the cloud by us, without installing any software.
Cloud hosting is included for the period agreed in the quote. When it expires the tour is archived, and reactivation is available for a fee, for the interval you need — as long as the project is in our archive. The delivered technical files remain yours for good, regardless of the state of the online tour.
If the project is still in our archive, we extract it from the existing digital base, with no new trip to the site. We recommend you keep the delivered files as well — they are yours for good.
