3D Laser Scanning and Scan to BIM

This video is about 3D laser scanners and their applications in building information modelling (BIM) processes. It describes the terms "scan to BIM" and reality capture. It also explains how Autodesk ReCap Pro software can be used to import and convert scan data from the 3d laser scanner into RCP point cloud format which can be then edited in BIM software applications such as Autodesk Revit and Civil 3D.

Tks, ur I love ur videos. I from Colombia and live on USA rain now. I love this matter

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Glad you like them!

Thank u, wow this will help the world build better. ❤ great vid ! Thanks I have been looking this.

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Glad to hear it!

[@ApoorvaDixit1488]

Thank you so much for the content🙂👌👍

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Thanks for the positive feedback and you are welcome!

I did tried the FARO scanner, too many noisy point cloud data scanned which may due to the open space environment. And, it was really exciting to use such expensive equipment. Autodesk probably would be a monopoly company of such technology for coming centuries.

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Thanks for sharing your experience :) I would say the Tech world is not 100% predictable. You may see a brand new company starting any time. But Revit in particular, is going to be dominating for a long time (I think).

[@alirowshanzadeh6129]

that was so nice and complete.

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Many thanks.

[@anshca8952]

I went through all the videos in your channel, highly beneficial and really appreciate your efforts in educating people over RUclips. Please upload some more videos and contents

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Many thanks for your feedback. I will make more videos (I am just a little too slow due to work commitments).

Hi Dr Elham. I would like to say that your videos are very informative and useful. So, thank you so much. I noticed that you haven't uploaded a video in a while, and I wonder if you are alright; I hope that you are. I hope to see more of your videos in the near future!

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Hi Mohamed, Thanks for your kind and positive feedback. I have only been very busy with work. I have lots of ideas for more videos, it is only the matter of finding some time.

[@digvijay4695]

Please, Upload Regularly Videos...

[@mjmahmoud]

thank you very much

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

You are welcome.

Thank you Dr Elham. Here you mentioned laser point can b open in RC so I have PCD files which is not gona to read by any software and can open in Cloudcompare but the files are not aligned so everything is messed. Now point is how to align and merg all these 2000 pcd file's..

[@waqashassan470]

We can align it through coding but a will go for manual process

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

What is the PCD point cloud data file format you have? See this website, it may help:

You can also convert them into Navisworks.

Thank you ❤️

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

You are welcome.

[@jafarmoghadam7712]

Excellent

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Thanks

[@tsegayegirma189]

Hi Dr. Thank you very much for your excellent presentation. I have gone through all your videos and found them very useful. You make me think of to advance my future carrier and education on BIM. I am currently living in Ethiopia, Africa. Can you suggest me any possible ways of getting additional training or courses on BIM? With regards.

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Hi, Thanks for your comment. First you should know how BIM is evolving your specialisation within the Built Environment sector. Which BIM software applications are the most important ones in your specialisation? You can find very good tutorials on LinkedIn, RUclips and Autodesk website. If you want to study BIM, there are various courses that offer BIM modules. What is your profession?

[@mohdamerali4940]

Thank you Mam😊

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

You are welcome.

[@baachenliving2063]

Thanks Madam, I would to start a project management business. This knowledge would be inevitable.

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

All the best

[@davidsolomon1175]

What type of scanner do you use?

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

To be very specific: Leica BLK360

[@rushilmevada5612]

Which scanner is most worthy and quality result!?

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

It depends on many factors: do you want to scan indoor spaces? outdoor? both? How large is the space? What are you looking for? Leica is a very good brand for 3D laser scanners used in the construction industry.

[@melihaslan9509]

Hi. Do you have a company doing digital twins?

[@builtevolvechannel8870]

Hi Melih, I don't have a company, but there are companies with digital twin expertise.
