SJ Geomatics provides professional Scan-to-BIM services across the UK, converting high-density laser scan point clouds into accurate 3D models in Autodesk Revit or Trimble SketchUp.
Whether you require a fully structured BIM model for coordination and construction, or a lightweight 3D model for concept design and planning, we tailor the output to suit your project stage and budget.
Scan-to-BIM is the process of capturing an existing building or asset using 3D laser scanning, then converting the point cloud data into an accurate digital model.
It is commonly used for refurbishment and retrofit projects, heritage and complex structures, design coordination, MEP planning, developer feasibility studies, asset documentation and construction verification.
All models are created from survey-grade data with defined tolerances and quality assurance procedures.
For coordination, construction and data-rich BIM environments
Our Scan-to-Revit service converts registered point cloud data into structured Autodesk Revit (.RVT) models, suitable for BIM workflows and design coordination.
Typical deliverables
Suitable for
Models are delivered to agreed LOD/LOI standards (typically LOD 200–350) and commonly to tolerances of ±10–20mm, depending on scope.
Point Cloud to SketchUp (.SKP)
Not every project requires full BIM authoring. For early-stage design, planning and visualisation, we provide Scan-to-SketchUp modelling as a streamlined alternative.
We convert laser scan data into clean, structured SketchUp (.SKP) models, giving designers an accurate as-built base without the complexity of Revit.
Typical deliverables
Ideal for
SketchUp models are typically produced to agreed tolerances of ±10–20mm, depending on building type and intended use.
We advise on the most appropriate modelling level to ensure you don’t over-specify — or under-deliver.
We can also integrate drone surveys for roof and inaccessible areas, topographical surveys for full site modelling, utility and GPR data overlays, measured building drawings, and deformation/monitoring data.
We deliver Scan-to-BIM and Scan-to-SketchUp services throughout Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex, East Anglia, London, the Midlands and nationwide UK.
