Building Information Modeling

Laser Scan to Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a process using 3D Laser Scanning and High Definition Survey technology and combining with BIM to accurately capture the as-built environment.   By working from the same 3D building model, projects can be designed, constructed and managed with greater efficiencies and accuracies leading to reduced costs and increased project profitability.  BIM allows architects, designers, engineers, manufactures, developers and contractors to work in collaboration.  HTA, Inc. laser scan to BIM service also provides architects, developers, building and civil engineering contractors, government agencies and facilities managers with a complete asset management database.
