Reality Capture

See What's Actually
There.

CCAD deploys Leica, FARO, and Matterport technology to capture existing conditions, verify installed work, and feed accurate point cloud data into the BIM coordination environment. Reality capture isn't a separate workflow — it's integrated into how we deliver.

Reality Capture Services

See What's
Actually
There.

Design-intent models assume the world is as drawn. Reality capture tells you what's actually there — existing conditions, installed work, and site geometry captured at survey-grade precision and integrated directly into the BIM environment.

For renovation, retrofit, and complex new construction, reality capture eliminates the unknown-conditions RFIs that derail coordination and protects the as-built accuracy that makes a digital twin worth owning.

Discuss Your Project

Equipment We Deploy

Leica RTC360, FARO Focus, and Matterport Pro — matched to project requirements, site conditions, and required accuracy levels. We don't use one scanner for every situation.

What You Get

Registered point clouds, Scan-to-BIM models, Matterport walkthroughs, and as-built verification reports — delivered in formats your team can immediately use.

Why It Matters

Reality capture improves existing-condition accuracy by 40%+ over traditional survey methods. For renovation and retrofit projects, that accuracy gap is the difference between a smooth coordination process and a change-order-driven one.

Service Lines

Laser Scanning

High-accuracy laser scanning using Leica and FARO equipment — capturing existing conditions, installed work, and site geometry at survey-grade precision. We deploy the right scanner for the environment: static terrestrial, mobile, or handheld depending on site conditions and required accuracy.

Point Cloud Processing

Raw scan data processed into clean, registered, and deliverable point clouds — optimized for file size, accuracy, and downstream use in Revit, Navisworks, and coordination workflows. We don't just scan — we deliver data that can actually be used.

Scan-to-BIM

Converting point cloud data into coordinated, information-rich BIM models — existing conditions, as-built geometry, and structural elements modeled to LOD 300-400 for use in renovation, retrofit, and coordination projects.

Matterport 3D Documentation

Immersive 3D walkthroughs using Matterport technology — capturing construction progress, existing conditions, and as-built documentation in a format accessible to owners, PMs, and remote stakeholders without requiring BIM software.

As-Built Verification

Comparing installed work to the coordinated model — identifying deviations, capturing field modifications, and maintaining an accurate as-built record that supports digital twin readiness at project closeout.

Progress Monitoring

Regular scan campaigns to document construction progress — giving owners and GCs an objective, date-stamped record of what was built, when it was built, and how it compares to the schedule and the model.

Existing Conditions Surveys

Pre-design and pre-construction surveys for renovation, retrofit, and expansion projects — capturing existing MEP systems, structural geometry, and site conditions to eliminate the unknown-conditions RFIs that derail renovation schedules.

Digital Twin Data Integration

Integrating reality capture data into the digital twin environment — creating an as-built foundation that accurately represents how the building was constructed, not just how it was designed.
