LiDAR Scanning & Digital Twins

Matterport Pro3 reality capture and digital twin deliverables.

Matterport Pro3 reality capture and digital-twin documentation for architects, general contractors, engineers, and building owners across Northern Arizona and California's North Coast. LiDAR-based interior capture, interactive 3D walkthroughs, point clouds, and measurable floor plans that plug into Revit and AutoCAD.

The Approach

Measurable spatial documentation.

LiDAR captures a space as measurable 3D data, every wall, every piece of equipment, every elevation change at centimeter-level accuracy. The output is an interactive digital twin clients can walk through, measure against, and use as the source of truth for design, planning, or documentation.

Interior and building-scale spatial capture for architects, general contractors, engineers, and building owners across Northern Arizona and California's North Coast. Each engagement starts with a site walk-through to scope deliverables, interactive walkthrough, measurement data, floor plans, optional CAD/BIM integration.

Matterport Pro3 LiDAR capture in-house, with scan-to-BIM modeling and survey-grade scope available through AEC and survey partners.

What's Included

What you actually get with lidar.

  • Matterport Pro3 LiDAR Capture

    LiDAR-based capture of interiors and building-scale sites at centimeter-level accuracy (about ±20mm). Equipment-dense floors, multi-room facilities, and existing-conditions documentation.

  • Interactive Digital Twin

    Web-accessible 3D walkthrough, clients can navigate, measure, and explore the captured space directly from a browser. No software install required.

  • Construction Progress Documentation

    Recurring interior scans through the build, especially MEP and framing before drywall closes it in. A dated visual record for closeout, owner reporting, and dispute protection.

  • Floor Plans + Measurements

    Accurate floor plans extracted from the scan data. Measurements precise enough for design planning, retrofit work, and as-built documentation.

  • High-Resolution Stills

    Pull still imagery from any angle of the scanned space, useful for documentation, marketing, insurance, or preservation records.

  • CAD/BIM Integration (optional)

    Point cloud exports compatible with AutoCAD, Revit, and other CAD/BIM workflows for engineering and architecture clients.

  • Aerial-Plus-Ground Combo

    Combined LiDAR scan with FAA Part 107 drone aerial photogrammetry for projects that span large outdoor sites, the two technologies complement each other.

  • Historic Preservation Documentation

    Centimeter-grade spatial records for Ferndale's National Historic Landmark district, Eureka's Carson Mansion and Old Town Victorians, Mendocino village, and Point Arena Lighthouse, irreplaceable architecture captured as a permanent, measurable archive for restoration, insurance, and grant documentation.

  • Virtual Inspections & Remote Access

    Insurance adjusters, engineers, AHJs, and off-site stakeholders can navigate the captured space from any browser. No site visit required. Useful for facility audits, dispute documentation, and multi-stakeholder coordination across geography.

Verticals Served

One scanner. Two industries.

LiDAR work splits into a few different shapes depending on who the client is. Industrial owners want as-built records and survey data. Property and heritage clients want a permanent archive. Same equipment, different deliverables.

How It Works

From first message to final delivery.

  1. 01

    Site Walk-Through

    On-site scoping visit to understand the facility, capture goals, and any specialty requirements (CAD output, multi-day scope, etc.).

  2. 02

    Proposal

    Written proposal with scan plan, deliverables, and timeline. Industrial scope scales with site size and equipment density.

  3. 03

    Pre-Scan Coordination

    Site access, safety briefing, equipment shutdowns or schedule windows for areas that need to be captured 'clean.'

  4. 04

    On-Site Scan

    Matterport Pro3 LiDAR capture documents every angle and elevation. Most single-floor facilities scan in 2–4 hours; large multi-floor buildings take a full day or more.

  5. 05

    Processing + Delivery

    Point cloud processing, mesh generation, walkthrough hosting, floor plan extraction, and CAD export. Standard turnaround 1–3 weeks depending on scope.

Investment

LiDAR engagements are scoped per project, site size, equipment density, and deliverable type all affect pricing. Most projects start in the low four figures. Site walk-through is free; the proposal includes detailed scope.

LiDAR FAQs

Common questions.

  • What is LiDAR and a digital twin?
    LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is high-precision 3D scanning that captures a space as a measurable, navigable model. A digital twin is the resulting 3D representation, a fully accurate spatial record clients can walk through, measure, and overlay design changes onto. Useful for industrial, commercial, and infrastructure documentation.
  • Who is this service for?
    Architects capturing existing conditions before a renovation, general contractors documenting construction progress and closeout, engineers and building owners who need measurable as-builts, and historic-preservation projects. Anyone who needs measurable spatial documentation that goes beyond photography.
  • How long does a scan take?
    Depends on scope. A single floor of a small commercial building can be scanned in 2–4 hours; a large multi-floor building or equipment-dense facility takes a full day or more. Tex provides a timeline as part of every project quote.
  • What deliverables do clients receive?
    Scan-to-CAD drawings drawn straight from the scan: DWG floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, interior and exterior elevations, and building sections. Plus registered E57 point clouds, an existing-conditions package, accurate measurement data, high-resolution stills from any angle, and an interactive 3D walkthrough you open in a browser. We deliver the finished CAD drawings, or hand off the registered point cloud for your own team to model. Output format is scoped per project.
  • Do I need a full Revit/BIM model, or is scan-to-CAD enough?
    Most projects that just need accurate as-built drawings, floor plans, elevations, sections, do not need a full parametric Revit model, and paying for one is money spent on modeling you will not use. Scan-to-CAD gets you clean, measurable drawings faster and for less. Full BIM earns its cost when you are running a large renovation or ongoing facility management off a live model. We scope which one your project actually needs on the first call so you are not overbuying.
  • Can you scan a building that is occupied or still in operation?
    Yes, and most commercial jobs are exactly that. We schedule around occupancy: off-hours, a floor or zone at a time, or during a planned shutdown window. The scanner captures a space quickly and without tearing anything apart, which is why occupied offices, running healthcare facilities, and active industrial plants are routine. Tell us the access constraints up front and we build the capture plan around them.
  • How does this compare to photogrammetry or drone mapping?
    The Matterport Pro3 captures LiDAR-based spatial data at centimeter-level accuracy (about ±20mm), ideal for interiors, equipment-dense environments, and existing-conditions documentation. For large outdoor sites where coverage matters more than per-point accuracy, drone aerial photogrammetry is the better tool. For many projects, the two are combined.
  • How accurate is the scan?
    The Matterport Pro3 captures with LiDAR at centimeter-level accuracy, roughly ±20mm under typical conditions. That's the right grade for existing-conditions documentation, as-built floor plans, renovation and tenant-improvement planning, progress tracking, and clearance checks. It is not survey-grade; when a project needs survey tolerances or geo-referenced control, we bring in a licensed survey partner. Project-specific accuracy targets are confirmed in the proposal.
  • Can I get a Revit, AutoCAD, or BIM model from the scan?
    Yes. Point cloud exports are compatible with Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, and other CAD/BIM workflows. We can hand off raw point clouds for your in-house team to model, or coordinate scan-to-BIM modeling with an AEC partner for clients who need a delivered Revit model. Output format is scoped per project, let us know what your downstream workflow looks like.
  • How is the digital twin delivered? Do I need special software?
    The digital twin is delivered as a web-accessible link, clients open it in any browser, no software install required. From the browser you can navigate the space, take measurements, drop notes, and share access with stakeholders. Raw point cloud and CAD-compatible exports are available on request for technical workflows.
