Common challenges
- Drawings that no longer match the building
- Undocumented alterations discovered during design
- Repeated visits to recover dimensions
- Survey information that arrives too late to influence the concept
How 3D helps
A registered point cloud gives the design team a measured base to work over from day one. Plans, sections and elevations are drawn from what exists, and the model can be checked back against the cloud at any stage.
Typical project workflow
Scope and site review
We establish the deliverable, the tolerance it requires and the constraints of the site.
Capture planning
Access windows, occupancy, safety procedures and control requirements are agreed before mobilisation.
Capture
Field capture within the agreed windows, with coverage verified before leaving site.
Processing and modelling
Registration, quality checks and production of the agreed drawing, model or report.
Handover
Delivery in the agreed formats, with exclusions and assumptions stated explicitly.
Example use case
A renovation practice inherits a 1970s office block with a partial drawing set. A single capture visit replaces four measured-survey visits and resolves the floor-to-floor variation before the concept is fixed.
Illustrative scenario, not a completed client project. Replace with verified case studies before publishing.
