3D laser scanning is a cutting-edge surveying technique that captures highly detailed and accurate spatial data about existing environments, structures and surfaces. Using high-speed laser scanners, millions of data points are recorded every second to create a precise 3D digital representation of real-world conditions known as a point cloud.
This data can then be processed to produce 2D drawings, 3D models, or full Building Information Models (BIM), making it an essential foundation for modern design, engineering and construction projects.

Terrain Surveys provides high-resolution point cloud data that accurately captures every visible surface of your site or structure. We can capture this data from the ground or from the air via drones. The point cloud can be used for:
Our Scan to BIM service converts raw point cloud data into intelligent BIM models, delivering a full digital twin of your building.
Models are produced in Revit or IFC format and can be tailored to specific Levels of Detail (LOD 100–500).
Essential for heritage recording, refurbishments, extensions and conceptual design.
Accurate as-built data for planning, verification and progress monitoring.
Provides detailed spatial data for structural analysis, coordination, and clash detection.
Every Terrain Surveys deliverable follows a rigorously planned workflow to ensure exceptional accuracy and customer satisfaction.
