LiDAR Scanner

Lidar Scanning is increasingly being used to survey and document existing conditions of buildings and properties. Property owners, buildings managers, contractors, architects and engineers find it a very useful tool for various projects because it is:
Fast

Lidar scanning can collect an enormous amount of information compared to a tradional survey, and make it available to use for a fraction of the time

Accurate

standars laser scanners come with varying accuracy & reach parameters, but all are very accurate for use in most construction/renovation projects

Reliabile / Verifiable

the Laser Scan is a reliable digital copy of the building / space that shows everything that was present at the time of the scan

Flexible / User friendly

point clouds, the digital format produced by the Laser Scan is compatible and usable on all the popular design software used today by architects and engineers.

An additional service related to laser scanning is the virtual tour. Using the 360 photography technology of the Laser Scan, virtual tours can be online-based or independent, usable and accessible to anyone with the link or the file without the ose of professional software. A property owner can use the virtual tour at any time to advertise the property, measure the spaces or review with designers / contractors their renovation plans, everything from a laptop or smartphone screen.

DMS offers the Lidar Scanning services with the maximum flexibility to adjust to the clients budget, schedule and specific needs:

Package A

Laser Scan point cloud in .rcp or .e57 format, plus the 360 photos taken at the time of the scan as separate .jpg image files. This is the most economical option that provides the base survey files ready for use by the designer, architect or engineer for your next renovation project.

Package B

Includes Package A + the 2D autocad plans of the areas in scope. Your designers can get immediately to work using this package as existing plans.

Package C

Includes Package A + B + a 3D Revit BIM model of the area of scope. As more and more architects and engineers are using BIM, this would be a preffered option to take advantage of the latest design technology and the benefits they bring to construction projects.

Package D

Includes Package A + B + C + the virtual tour. A proprietary .exe Microsoft Windows file, or online based accessed directly through a link. Very useful to preview the property with your team for any purpose, from real estate advertising to planning the next renovation

Package E

Includes Package A + B + C + E + Floor Level Report using laser scanning technology to identify deviations from the desired standard. This report is crucial for ensuring structural integrity, compliance with building codes, and smooth operation of machinery and vehicles, particularly in industrial settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What formats do you provide LiDAR scans in?

Standard outputs include point clouds (.las, .xyz), 2D plans (PDF, DWG), and 3D models (optional). We tailor to your software requirements.

Can you scan outdoor areas?

Yes, our equipment supports both indoor and outdoor scanning—even in low-light conditions.

Is LiDAR better than photogrammetry?

Yes for precision. LiDAR provides more accurate dimensional data, especially in reflective or low-contrast environments.

How large an area can you scan?

From small vanities to entire buildings or vessels. We scale based on your project.
