3D scanning to BIM

Jcbbagley

Does anyone have experience in 3D modeling from point clouds?

 

Just curious about the process that goes into this and also the software used. I was approached a few weeks ago by my boss about researching more into this topic. My company owns a Faro 3D laser scanner and are currently trying to get into the scan to BIM market. 

I've been messing around with pointclouds in REVIT, just to get a feel for what we are trying to accomplish. I would really appreciate any help with this topic, or if anyone could point me in any direction as to where I should look for more information on this topic.

screenshot your stuff and describe over all purposes, i'm down to learn anything on this.

 

there's a 3d Scanner out there made in Australia or NZ and then going to go to market in UK this year I think, can't remember name, but basically in say 20 minutes of walking you scan a couple thousand square feet of a building - all point clouds etc...

My office has used a 3d laser scanning company to get existing conditions and site surveys. The point cloud data is in full color as well and is accurate to 3mm. It's really cool stuff.

Do you human-bot interfaces use some sort of keyword search to locate the people you wish to annoy into avoiding your products?

 

Here's a thought, DON'T ANNOY POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS.

 

Speaking for myself, I will work to get my large firm to AVOID using any crap that spams based on keyword searches, such as the numerous examples above.

 

Nice anti-marketing, at least I know which fly-by-night garbage to avoid.
