PointBIM provides laser scanning across London and issues a fully registered point cloud files (E57/RCP). Clients can use this as a standalone service and handle their own post-processing in Revit, AutoCAD, Archicad or similar.
Benefits of
3D Laser Scanning
Laser scanning is increasingly used on refurbishments, heritage projects, and tight urban sites in London. Benefits include:
- Accuracy – millimetre-level capture across large areas.
- Efficiency – rapid on-site survey compared to traditional methods.
- Safety – minimal access requirements, reducing time spent on scaffolding or in hazardous areas.
- Versatility – point clouds can be processed into Revit, AutoCAD, or other formats as required.
For architects, engineers, and contractors, this means better coordination, fewer site visits, and a dependable record of existing conditions.

Where Laser Scanning Adds Value
We regularly provide laser scanning in London for:
- Refurbishment & Fit-Out – existing floor plans, ceiling heights, and service routes.
- Heritage Buildings – sensitive sites requiring detailed recording.
- Commercial Developments – office refurbishments and estate management.
- Residential Projects – accurate measured surveys for design and planning.
Deliverables
- Registered point cloud (primary output) — unified, colourised scans aligned to OS grid/ODN or project control.
Formats: E57 (master), RCP/RCS for Autodesk, PTX/LAS on request. - Registration & QA pack — control report, registration residuals, screenshots, and survey notes.
- Panoramic imagery (optional) — colour pano set or web-hosted viewer for context.
- Survey control (where established) — control coordinates/benchmarks supplied.
Many clients take the registered point cloud as a standalone deliverable and complete their own post-processing in Revit, AutoCAD, Archicad, etc. If required, we can also produce 2D CAD drawings or a Revit model (LOD 200–300) as separate add-ons.
CASE STUDY PROJECTS

CASE STUDY: Boston Manor House, Brentford
PointBIM delivered a full-colour terrestrial laser scan of Boston Manor House and its immediate surroundings. The colourised point cloud and registration framework provide a reliable baseline for conservation work, measured drawings, and downstream BIM modelling.
