Accurate As-Built Drawings from 3D Laser Scanning
Replace outdated plans with verified 2D documentation extracted from survey-grade point cloud data. Floor plans, elevations, sections and CAD drawings delivered in days, not weeks.
Why Choose Scan-Based As-Built Drawings?
Traditional measured building surveys rely on tape measures and manual sketching — time-consuming and prone to error. Our approach uses 3D laser scanning to capture millions of precise measurements, then extracts accurate 2D drawings directly from the point cloud data.
- →±2mm accuracy vs ±20mm from tape measures
- →Complete capture — nothing missed or forgotten
- →Faster delivery — scan once, extract any drawing
- →Future-proof — point cloud retained for additional views
Common Problems We Solve
- ✗No existing drawings or plans available
- ✗Original plans don't match current conditions
- ✗Modifications made without documentation
- ✗Inaccurate or low-quality scanned PDFs
- ✗Council requires current conditions survey
- ✗Architect needs verified base for design

As-Built Documentation Questions
What is as-built documentation?
As-built documentation refers to accurate drawings and plans that show a building exactly as it currently exists — including any modifications made since original construction. These documents replace outdated or inaccurate original plans with verified current conditions captured through 3D laser scanning.
How accurate are your as-built drawings?
Our as-built drawings are extracted from point cloud data captured at ±2mm accuracy using the Trimble X7 scanner. This survey-grade precision ensures your drawings reflect true dimensions, not approximations from tape measures or assumptions from original plans.
What file formats do you deliver?
We deliver as-built documentation in industry-standard formats including AutoCAD DWG, PDF (for printing and sharing), and Revit RVT files. We can accommodate specific format requirements or layer standards on request.
How long does as-built documentation take?
Turnaround depends on project size and complexity. A typical residential property takes 3-5 business days from scanning to final drawings. Commercial projects with multiple floors may take 5-10 business days. Rush delivery is available for urgent projects.
Do you follow specific CAD standards?
Yes. We can deliver drawings following your preferred CAD standards, layer naming conventions, and sheet layouts. Common standards include Australian Standard AS 1100, NatSpec, and client-specific requirements for council submissions.
Can you document buildings with no existing plans?
Absolutely. Many older buildings, heritage structures, and modified properties have no existing documentation or severely outdated plans. Our 3D scanning process captures the building as it exists today, allowing us to create comprehensive as-built documentation from scratch.
