Project Overview

Using Point Cloud-to-BIM technology, Cresire, a provider of BIM services, collaborated with a New York-based business to create BIM models for a historic structure. We aimed to convert point cloud data from the current structure into precise and comprehensive CAD drawings and 3d Revit models so that the next rehabilitation project could make well-informed design choices. 

Our Result-Driven Point Cloud-to-BIM Process

1. Point Cloud Data Review: The client shared the point cloud data with CRESIRE. Our team conducted a comprehensive review of the building and assessed the time for developing a 3D model and CAD drawings using point cloud data.

2. Revit modeling and Detailing: Our skilled BIM modelers painstakingly transformed the point cloud data into intricate 3D models and CAD drawings using Revit software, capturing architectural details, interior features, and building systems.

3. Quality Control and Delivery: To ensure accuracy and compliance with project specifications, each model was subjected to internal inspections and client reviews. Complete CAD plans and intricate Revit models were among the final deliverables.
