Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Answers to common questions regarding our 3D scanning, BIM, and Drone services in Ontario.
1. What is the difference between 3D laser scanning and traditional surveying?
Traditional surveying captures individual points one by one. 3D laser scanning (LiDAR) captures millions of points per second, creating a highly detailed and accurate digital twin (point cloud) of the entire environment, eliminating missing data.
2. Which areas in Ontario do you serve?
We cover the entire province. From commercial projects in the GTA (Toronto, Mississauga) to industrial retrofits in Southwestern Ontario (Hamilton, Windsor), and remote mining or infrastructure projects in Northern Ontario (Sudbury, Timmins).
3. What file formats do you deliver for 3D point clouds?
We deliver point clouds in universally accepted formats such as E57, RCP/RCS (optimized for Autodesk products like Revit and AutoCAD), and LAS/LAZ. We ensure the data is properly registered, cleaned, and structured for your team.
4. Can you create As-Built 2D drawings from the 3D scans?
Yes. We use the highly accurate point cloud data to draft precise 2D As-Built floor plans, elevations, sections, and roof plans. These are delivered in DWG and PDF formats, ready for architects and engineers.
5. Do you offer Scan-to-BIM (Revit) services?
Absolutely. We specialize in converting point cloud data into intelligent 3D BIM models using Autodesk Revit. We can model Architecture, Structure, and MEP according to your required Level of Detail (LOD).
6. How do drone LiDAR surveys benefit large infrastructure projects?
Drone LiDAR allows us to rapidly survey large areas like highways, railways, and power corridors. The laser penetrates vegetation to map the bare earth accurately, which is crucial for civil engineering and volumetric calculations.
7. Is it possible to scan active industrial plants or mines?
Yes. Our non-contact laser scanners capture data safely from a distance. We work around your operational schedule to minimize or eliminate downtime during the scanning process in factories or mining sites.
8. What is the typical turnaround time for a project in the GTA?
Turnaround depends on the project size. On-site scanning often takes 1 to 2 days. Processing the point cloud usually takes 48-72 hours. Deliverables like detailed Revit models or 2D CAD drawings require additional time based on complexity.
9. Do you capture MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) networks?
Yes. We frequently scan dense mechanical rooms, boiler rooms, and ceiling plenums. We can deliver the raw point cloud or create a detailed 3D MEP model to help you plan retrofits without physical clashes.
10. How accurate are your 3D laser scanners?
Our terrestrial laser scanners offer sub-millimeter to millimeter-level accuracy depending on the range and environmental conditions. This ensures that the digital twin perfectly represents real-world conditions.
11. Can weather affect drone LiDAR operations in Northern Ontario?
Yes. Drone flights are subject to weather conditions like high winds, heavy rain, or severe snow. However, we meticulously plan our deployments considering local forecasts to ensure safe and successful data capture.
12. How much does a 3D scanning project cost in Ontario?
Costs vary based on the square footage, complexity of the site, and the required deliverables (raw point cloud vs. full BIM model). You can use our cost estimator above for a baseline budget, or contact us directly for a firm quote.
