3D Laser Scanning & Measured Building Surveys throughout Cardiff
Laser scanning technology records exact measurements across any environment, delivering 2D documentation and precise 3D geometry for CAD and BIM processes.
Capturing On-Site Measurement Data Across Cardiff
Fast, Safe and Accurate Laser Surveys
In Cardiff, 3D laser scanning has become a key tool for capturing accurate information across the city’s mix of heritage architecture, waterfront regeneration zones, commercial districts, and expanding residential areas. Modern laser scanners record buildings and landscapes in high-density detail, creating precise digital replicas that support clear decision-making from the earliest project stages. With reliable point clouds, measured drawings, and intelligent 3D models, design teams can assess constraints, test ideas, and coordinate works more effectively, helping projects throughout Cardiff progress with greater confidence and reduced risk.

High-Accuracy Surveys for Architecture, Engineering, & Construction
PointSCAN provides professional 3D laser scanning and measured building surveys across the UK and the surrounding region. Using industry-leading 3D laser scanning equipment and advanced point cloud processing, our survey teams capture every millimetre of detail—delivering precise digital models that support design, renovation, and verification projects of any scale.
Whether you’re an architect, structural engineer, contractor, or property developer, we provide the reliable data foundation you need to make informed design and construction decisions.
Turning Real-World Sites into Digital Models
Our high-definition laser scanning service captures millions of data points per second to produce a complete, accurate 3D record of your building or site. The resulting point cloud can be supplied in a range of formats and used directly within AutoCAD, Revit, Navisworks, and other BIM environments.
Typical outputs include:
Point cloud data (.E57, .RCP, .PTS, .LAS)
2D CAD drawings (plans, elevations, sections)
3D Revit / BIM models
TruView or JetStream online viewing portals
As simple as converting s point cloud to a 3D model
