The scan-to-BIM (Building Information Modeling) workflow has enabled architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals to efficiently capture design, and model the as-built environment. But what if we could modify and further automate this process to boost efficiency and insight? This course will be looking at a more refined and automated application of the scan-to-BIM workflow by incorporating laser scanning and point-cloud extraction technologies, as well as creating photorealistic visualisations using scanned data and the design model for more informed, insightful decision making by conveying highly accurate and realistic design intent.
