Scan to BIM - Point Clouds Inside Revit!

 

 

IMAGINit Technologies yesterday launched "Scan to BIM", which allows point cloud data to be used inside Revit.

Not only does it allow you to bring point clouds into Revit, it also allows you to start generating geometry from the cloud with auto feature recognition, which is as far as we know is a first..  In our research we have seen similar products designed for offshore engineering and generic geometry generation but none specificaly for the AEC industry.

  • Create native Revit elements, including walls, windows and pipes, directly from a point cloud;
  • Import laser-scanned point clouds directly into Revit, eliminating the laborious steps associated with bringing useful, clean point clouds into Revit;
  • Visualize the point cloud inside Revit based on color, intensity or elevation;
  • Analyze discrepancies by comparing the Revit model against the point cloud;

Engineered by the same software developers and industry experts who created Avatech Utilities for Revit (www.avatech.com/revitutilities), Scan to BIM is designed specifically for the Autodesk Revit 2011 platform (Architecture, Structure and MEP) with specific capabilities for architects and mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers.

Scan to BIM is priced at US$2,495 per seat with an optional maintenance subscription covering technical support and future upgrades at $495 per seat, per year. Request a 30-day trial of Scan to BIM complete with sample data from www.avatech.com/scantobim. For more information contact an IMAGINiT Technologies or Avatech Solutions representative.
