High resolution 3D laser scanning services in Sydney
3D laser scanners, also known as LiDAR scanners save the raw data as point clouds. These point clouds consist of millions of data points which can be merged, manipulated, coloured and converted into different file formats.
The point cloud can be processed in CAD, BIM or visualisation applications depending on your unique project needs and outcomes.
From construction sites to warehouses and residential renovations, you can capture it all via our 3D laser scanning services in Sydney.
Here are a few advantages of 3D laser scanning you should know about:
- Quick and easy site data collection
- Minimum disruptions onsite
- Eliminate revisits
- Easily detect issues and minimises risks
- Helps architects identify design errors
- Assists with assessing existing conditions
- Real-time worksite inspections
- Visualize and manipulate real-world data in 3D Space

LiDAR Surveying for Site Volume and Topography
LiDAR surveying is an effective method for determining site volume and topography. By using airborne LiDAR technology, we can collect detailed data on the natural surface of a site, including vegetation, terrain, and ground elevations. This information is crucial for various purposes such as construction planning, town planning, and environmental assessments.
Sometimes, it is simply not possible to manually measure and map the construction site – a practice that a lot of construction still stubbornly holds onto.
Fortunately, many construction companies are slowly coming around, incorporating new technologies such as digital sensors, drone tech, cloud computing etc. to their projects.
3D laser scanning companies in Australia and the world over now use LiDAR scanning technology to reduce onsite risks by automating the surveying process. You don’t need to send workers to walk the construction site or enter confined spaces like underground pipelines for maintenance work anymore – the 3D laser scanner gets the job done without risk to staff.
With LiDAR scanners, we can capture precise measurements and create classified point clouds that represent the site’s topographical details. These point clouds can then be transferred to a BIM (Business Information Model) where 2D images are converted into accurate 3D models.
The advantages of using aerial LiDAR surveying include its ability to provide comprehensive and detailed information about a site. It saves time and effort by quickly capturing large areas, and it helps in determining the volume of the site that needs to be cleared and the equipment required. This technology enables more accurate planning and assessment, leading to improved project outcomes.

FAQs About 3D Scanning Sydney
We have answered some common questions AEC clients have about 3D laser scanning services in Sydney and across the state of NSW.
3D laser scanning services in Sydney for Architecture, Engineering and Construction projects costs anywhere between \$1600 – \$2200 for a laser scanning technician to attend the site and scan. You can check out our laser scanning costing guide for more insights on how laser scanning is charged in Australia.
Depending on the size and shape of the building it usually takes us a day or two to scan both the interior and exterior of a large warehouse or commercial building. It takes longer to scan many rooms or internal details on the property i.e. HVAC.
You can check out this case study wherein our team conducted a scan to model a commercial warehouse scan to understand more about the process and benefits.
Using 3D Revit models allows for precision in design and installation as we are working with precision measurements from laser scanning. Also we are able to create 2D drawings out of 3D Revit models so you can still obtain drawings with more efficiency and accuracy.
We create all types of plans and drawings- Floor plans, Reflected Ceiling plans and views-Elevation, Section. Basically everything from construction and shop drawings to updated as-built, BIM and asset management models.
3D scanning services in Sydney are becoming increasingly popular among AEC professionals. They are popularly searched on Google with the search strong “3D scanning sydney”. This is because LiDARs offer better accuracy and convenience when compared to the traditional land surveying methods.
