End-to-End LiDAR Scan Capture And Point Cloud Processing for BIM Delivery

JES delivers end-to-end LiDAR-to-BIM workflows — from high-precision scan capture to point cloud registration and model development. We produce LOD 400–500 BIM outputs aligned to your BEP, ensuring clash-free delivery and compatibility with FM and Digital Twin platforms.
Bringing the Real World into a BIM Environment
We deliver advanced solutions to convert real-world environments into precise digital assets. From LiDAR scanning to BIM modeling and integration, our process ensures accuracy and value for every project.

High-Precision LiDAR Scanning
Using cutting-edge LiDAR technology, we capture millions of data points to create dense, accurate 3D point clouds. Our refined process cleans, aligns, and segments raw data, preparing it for seamless use in modeling and analysis.
Point Cloud to BIM Conversion
We transform point cloud data into detailed BIM models, accurately replicating architectural, structural, and MEP systems. Each model is enriched with metadata, providing actionable insights for design, planning, and coordination.
As-Built DocumentationOur As-Built documentation reflects exact site conditions, ensuring your digital records are accurate. These models are essential for renovations, compliance, and future planning, minimizing errors and streamlining workflows.By leveraging JES’s LiDAR scanning and point cloud services, you gain highly accurate data for every stage of your
project, from design to construction and long-term facility management.

Renovations, Digital Twins and Facilities Management
We deliver comprehensive models optimized for renovations, retrofits, and integration with digital twins or facilities management systems. This supports predictive maintenance, operational efficiency, and long-term sustainability.
LiDAR Scan to BIM Workflow
Scanning and Data Processing Workflow
Our workflow covers the full process from LiDAR scan to LOD 500 BIM — including data capture, point cloud processing, modeling, and QA. Each step ensures accurate, as-built outputs that integrate seamlessly into Digital Twins and FM systems for long-term asset management and optimization.
Scanning
Initial Setup
Define the scanning objectives and boundaries based on the project’s specific needs. Configure the Faro Focus S350 long-range 3D scanner to capture high-resolution spatial data with precision.
Site  Preparation
Ensure the site is accessible and ready for scanning. Set up targets or reference markers as needed to enhance scan accuracy and capture the required data effectively.
Data Acquisition
3D Scanning
Perform 3D scanning using the Faro Focus S350 long-range scanner to capture a comprehensive point cloud of the environment. Scan from multiple positions and angles to ensure full coverage and accurate data collection.
DATA Processing
Validate and process the captured data on-site to ensure completeness and accuracy. Export the point cloud in a suitable format such as e57. Import the raw data into Autodesk Recap Pro, where scans are aligned, merged, and cleaned to remove noise. The processed point cloud is then filtered, refined, and exported in formats such as .rcp and .rcs for further modeling.
LOD 500 Model
Point Cloud Processing
The point cloud data is processed and transformed into a precise LOD 500 model, accurately reflecting the project's as-built conditions. This process follows BEP (BIM Execution Plan) guidelines, ensuring smooth integration into BIM platforms.
  • Import Point Cloud: Bring point cloud data into the modeling software.
  • Set Project North: Define the correct orientation for the model.
  • Apply View Templates: Standardize visualization and data structure across the model.
  • Verify Alignment:Check grids, levels, and elements for accuracy.
  • Update Parameters: Adjust project parameters based on site-specific data.
  • Ensure LOD 500 Compliance: Align the model with LOD 500 standards for as-built accuracy.
  • Run Clash Detection: Identify and resolve any system conflicts.
Output
Quality Control
A final quality check ensures the LOD 500 model is accurate, complete, and compliant with all standards
  • Model Cleanup: Remove unnecessary elements.
  • Delete Extra Views/Plans: Eliminate redundant views.
  • Standard Compliance: Ensure all standards are met.
  • Workset Check: Verify worksets are correct.
  • Purge and Audit: Clean and optimize the file.
  • COBie Extraction: Extract COBie data for facility management.
  • Final Deliverables: Export as-built drawings in DWG and PDF formats.
