Why SketchUp?
SketchUp is widely used for its intuitive interface and fast modelling workflow. A SketchUp model from laser scan data gives you the accuracy of laser-measured data with the flexibility and ease of SketchUp's modelling environment. Easy to share with clients and consultants who may not have specialist BIM software.
Process
Site Visit
We capture the building using 3D laser scanners.
Registration
Scans are registered into a unified point cloud.
Modelling
Our team models the building in SketchUp using the point cloud as a measured reference.
Delivery
You receive the completed .skp file, ready to open and start designing.
Prefer to model it yourself?
If you'd rather build the model in-house, our point cloud delivery service gives you the same measured data in E57 format, ready for SketchUp extensions like Undet or Trimble Scan Explorer.
