ARCHITECTURE & POINTCAB ORIGINS
Working with laser scanning data is becoming increasingly important in architecture.
Many architects are already using the possibilities of digital reality capture to their advantage – e.g. for planning and visualization.
The so-called digital twin technology is creating an exact digital copy from existing objects and structures. This way, possible errors or problems can be identified digitally before construction begins. This lays the foundation for even more accurate and cost-saving architecture.
Here you can see how PointCab Origins enables you to create a digital twin quickly and easily.
THE 3 STEPS OF THE DIGITAL TWIN
PLANNING
A uniform and comprehensive database serves as a planning basis for all parties involved.
BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING
Simple and fast creation of a three-dimensional building model based on point cloud data from laser scanners.
DOCUMENTATION
Fast, complete, and accurate digital documentation of
of existing buildings.
ADVANTAGES WITH POINTCAB ORIGINS
- Accurate and complete measurement
- Quick creation of floor plans or sections
- Comprehensive database compatible with all CAD systems
- Quick creation of BIM models
- Faster workflow means lower project costs
ADDED VALUE IN ARCHITECTURE
- Time saving when importing and editing point clouds in CAD programs
- The fastest way to create plans in the form of raster images with the corresponding CAD files (DWG/DXF etc.),
which can be used as a reference for drawing or modeling
