Scan to BIM

Image
 Opportunities, Challenges and the Future Evolution of Digital Engineering, Asset Management and the CAD Industry By Anthony Hamilton Abstract The rapid advancement of reality capture technologies has fundamentally altered the methods by which engineers, architects, asset owners and construction professionals interact with the built environment. Scan to Building Information Modelling (Scan to BIM) has emerged as one of the most transformative technologies within the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AECO) sector. By combining high-resolution laser scanning, LiDAR technologies, photogrammetry and Building Information Modelling methodologies, organisations can create highly accurate digital representations of existing assets for design, construction, operations and maintenance purposes. The adoption of Scan to BIM has accelerated in response to increasing demands for digital transformation, improved asset management, enhanced safety performance and reduced pro...
