Precise measurement data for architectural projects

Gain valuable data for your construction planning and BIM models

The sigma3D team offers customized measurement solutions that enhance the reliability of your architectural planning and reduce costs. Using state-of-the-art laser scanning technology, we create precise digital representations of your buildings and structures—from simple residential spaces to complex historic monuments. This data provides the ideal foundation for your BIM models, floor plans, and other architectural applications.

3D Scans for Your Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital process that centrally maps and manages all relevant information about your construction project. We actively support you in creating the geometric foundation: for precise 3D models and informative cross-sections.

Using our laser scanning technology, we capture the exact as-built condition of your building or structure. The high-precision point cloud generated in this process forms the reliable basis for a detailed 3D model as part of your BIM.

We perform the modeling using the industry-standard software REVIT and provide you with the data in all common formats, such as IFC. This ensures maximum compatibility with your existing systems and guarantees seamless data exchange.

By combining laser scanning and BIM, you benefit in several ways:

1. Precision: Obtain meaningful measurement data with millimeter accuracy for your planning processes and reliably capture even complex geometries.
2. Time savings: Significantly reduce the time required for data collection compared to traditional measurement methods and avoid repeated on-site measurements.
3. As-Built Documentation: Use laser scanning to quickly and precisely transfer existing structures into your BIM model during renovations or remodeling for maximum planning reliability.
4. Error reduction: By combining precise scan data with your planning and coordination in BIM, identify planning errors early on and avoid costly corrections during the construction phase.
5. Deriving Floor Plans and Sections from 3D Models: Generate dimensionally accurate 2D plans directly from the 3D model for consistent documentation across all planning levels.
6. Photorealistic visualization: Use 3D rendering to create a photorealistic 2D image from your 3D models for your project presentations.
