Laser scanning (3D scanning) uses high‑precision LiDAR technology to capture millions of measurement points and create a high‑accuracy 3D model of buildings, structures or environments.
It is ideal for:

Measured building surveys

Heritage sites

Complex structures

As‑built verification

Clash detection and BIM modelling

Laser scanning is recommended when:

You need high‑detail internal or external measurements

The structure is complex or irregular

You require 3D models, point clouds or BIM‑ready data

You need accurate as‑built information for construction or refurbishment

You want minimal disruption — scanning is fast and non‑intrusive

Traditional surveying is still ideal for open land, boundaries, utilities and engineering control.

Typical outputs include:

Point clouds (E57, LAS, PLY)

3D mesh models

Revit‑ready BIM models

2D plans, elevations and sections

High‑resolution panoramic images

Digital twins (on request)

Laser scanning typically achieves:

Sub‑centimetre accuracy for most structures

2–5mm accuracy for engineering‑grade scans
Accuracy depends on site conditions, access and required specification.

Timelines vary by complexity:

Small residential property: 1–3 hours

Medium commercial building: ½–1 day

Large industrial sites: 1–3 days
Processing and modelling usually take 3–10 working days depending on deliverables.

Yes — for internal laser scanning or measured building surveys, we require access to all relevant rooms, floors and areas.
For external scanning only, internal access is not required.
