3d laser scanning & BIM

Capture once, use many times.

3D laser scanning is a powerful enabler of digital twins, transforming real‑world assets into high‑fidelity digital models. By integrating precise laser scan data with Building Information Modelling (BIM), BTW delivers intelligent 2D and 3D models that support confident decision‑making – enabling clash detection, retrofit planning, and long‑term asset and facility lifecycle management.

Why choose this service:

Reduce RFIs and rework by sharing accurate, detailed models
Plan retrofits with confidence using reliable as-built information
Shareable models for designers and owners, improving collaboration and decisions

Our 3D scanning process captures sites quickly and safely, minimising time on site while delivering a complete and accurate representation of existing geometry. Data can be provided in the formats your team needs – whether point clouds, 2D drawings, or intelligent Revit models ensuring seamless integration into design, construction, and project management workflows.

Repeat scanning can also be undertaken to track change over time, enabling precise detection of deformation, movement, or asset condition changes and providing confidence for ongoing decision‑making.
