BIM or Building Information Modelling is a process for creating and managing information on a construction project across the project lifecycle. One of the key outputs of this process is the Building Information Model, the digital description of every aspect of the built asset. ... BIM is a way of working.

What is point cloud BIM?
It uses to create as-built BIM models for MEP services that help the managers provide early clash detection. It enhances the creation of intelligent BIM model in Revit by providing accurate point cloud data to the clients. It helps measure points within the scan to find true dimensions quickly.
What is the difference between CAD and BIM?
CAD is typically used for industrial design of mechanical and electrical assemblies from airplanes to iPhones — while BIM is used exclusively in the design and construction of commercial buildings such as airports, office towers or schools and has more increasingly become the new industry standard
BENEFITS OF 3D SCAN TO BIM:
3D scanning systems provide a more efficient, accurate, and comprehensive method of constructing a model into which vital information may be registered. Here are a few of the most important benefits of employing 3D scanning to produce a comprehensive BIM model with end-user data.
1. Efficiency
By incorporating 3D scanning into the BIM process, the risk of construction interruptions is minimized, and the design process can be sped up. Designers and other important participants will have direct collaborative access to the essential information and will be able to make decisions quickly and efficiently, owing to point cloud data obtained during a terrestrial 3D scan, rather than waiting on hand measurements or data from another team.
2. Accuracy
The demand for quality assurance and reliability is driving progress in the AEC business, with 3D scanning to BIM and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) being two examples. The accuracy of the final BIM model is substantially improved when 3D laser scanners are used instead of traditional hand measurement methods, which benefits VDC greatly. The BIM model is built from the scan data with scan-to-BIM, resulting in improved accuracy and smarter judgments. Construction interferences and modification orders, which have a direct impact on your job profitability, are almost eliminated with such precision.
3. Versatility
Across all stages of construction, maintenance, and system integration in commercial buildings, plants, and manufacturing facilities, BIM enables for the sharing of a 3D database across relevant engineering and maintenance teams. The fields that teams will be able to input with essential data are modeled elements within the 3D Revit model. BIM’s collaborative nature makes it ideal for a variety of applications, including facilities management and maintenance. Laser Scanning can provide an as-built 3D Revit model geometry of building elements, allowing your team to see the big picture and plan for the present and future demands.
4. Cost-Efficiency
Because of the greater precision involved with Scan to BIM site planning, you may create a more appealing spending plan for your activities. You can strive not to go over your budget, and you’ll have fewer chances of encountering excessive mix-ups or unexpected charges. Laser examining also eliminates the need for manual reviewing, lowering the cost of hiring additional workers.
5. Safety
Manual surveying may involve navigating across difficult terrain, posing a safety risk to surveyors. Scan-to-BIM uses drones to collect data from these tough terrains without putting people in danger.
BIM is already empowering to streamline workflows, reduce project errors, and improve overall project quality. Scan to BIM is used for a variety of applications, including creating 3D CAD models for fabricated components, metrology and quality inspection, and a variety of visualization, animation, rendering, and mass customization applications. The intricacy of the building/facility or landscape design, as well as its attributes, play a major role in the creation of a 3D model. The building’s ongoing remodeling and renovations add to the issues. Implementing reliable 3D Point Cloud technology with laser scanners and 3D modeling software, on the other hand, ensures skilled solutions in which each and every aspect of the landscape is recognized and distinguished from the next.
Hi-Tech3D Services supports our clients with complete range of Point cloud conversion services. We deliver a full range of BIM modeling projects. We work on parametric family creation, model creation for all LOD (Level of Detail), 4D and 5D support and model phasing, as well. We also provide complete support for CAD to BIM, point cloud to BIM, SCAN to BIM and PDF to BIM conversions.

How does BIM relate to Scan-to-BIM?
As demand grows in the AEC industry for the implementation of BIM, so does the demand for the creation of BIM schematics for existing buildings. Scan-to-BIM is quickly becoming an integral part of the BIM process.
Where a project involves a pre-existing structure or site (as it will in most cases), reality capture of as-built conditions can provide the model with the most critical information before a designer even gets to work.
So here it is, the short and pithy summary: Scan-to-BIM is the process of digitally capturing a physical space or site as laser scan data, which feeds into the initial creation, development and maintenance of a BIM model.
