3D Laser Scanning
We take your laser scan projects to the next level
Lasers have become an integral tool in construction. Laser technology has made building easier and safer, from making sure a structure is level to helping produce an architectural plan from a 3D scan.
At ARC, we combine LiDAR technology with advanced laser scanning methods to improve data accuracy and efficiency. Architecture professionals at ARC understand the impact 3D laser scan to BIM can have on the planning and execution of your project, ensuring precise data capture for better design and construction outcomes.
Sample 3D Laser Scanning ARC
The Art of the Point Cloud
Laser scanners capture everything within their line of sight. As the laser sweeps across a surface, it takes millions of precise measurements. Each measurement results in a single point in space, and together, these points form what is known as a point cloud.
A three-dimensional point cloud reveals all out-of-plumb and out-of-square conditions in the real world. By integrating LiDAR technology, these scans achieve even greater accuracy, ensuring highly detailed representations of structures. The point cloud can then be used to create 2D CAD line work or even a 3D intelligent Building Information Model (BIM) for enhanced design and documentation.

Client Testimonials
Tricia Hamachai
ARC modeled a complex historic building for us. Both the quality of the as-built model and the model delivery meeting were master class. Our team was blown away. ARC was communicative throughout the process and pleasant to work with.
Dan Schriever
I worked with John and his team on the Union Station project in Washington DC. Both John and his team were a pleasure to work with and very professional. I'm looking for the next project that I can team up with him.
Ryan Trinidad
Having had the pleasure to not only utilize ARC's expertise in the areas of 3D Laser Scanning and production of BIM deliverables, I've also had the good fortune to establish a personal, long-standing relationship with John
More often than not,
We can start faster than you can authorize us.
We pride ourselves in providing innovative solutions,
rapid response, high quality products and service, on time.
However, don't take our word for it.
U.S. Institute of Building Documentation/LOA Certified
Staff at ARC is LOA (Level of Accuracy) certified by the U.S. Institute of Building Documentation. The LOA standards were created by the USIBD as a guide for reality capture professionals within the AEC industry.
LOA certified individuals have demonstrated their understanding of the USIBD’s LOA specification and how to apply its principles to ensure accuracy and precision in the measurement process.
To us, every square foot matters. That’s why our professional employees are trained to follow these standards when working on projects—so you can know that your deliverables are always accurate.
Quick Questions
How can I get a 3D building scan of my site?
Using the best laser scanning technology, ARC will scan your site in its as-built condition to create a 3D building scan, giving you the most accurate building model for your project.
How do you go about 3D scanning buildings with safety hazards and limit access?
This technology was made for 3D laser scanning buildings, worksites and other areas that are unsafe for human surveyors. We offer a range of scanners, cameras, and other mapping technology that prioritizes worksite safety.
Who can benefit from using a 3D laser scan in architecture? I found some old blueprint record drawings—isn't this enough?
Old blueprints and record drawings can help with initial planning, but nothing will give you the full picture like 3D scanning for architecture. Property managers, owners, contractors, architecture firms, and designers will be able to budget and plan better with accurate and validated information that only a 3D scanning for architecture as-built can provide.
Why is a LiDAR survey important for construction projects?
A LiDAR survey uses laser pulses to capture precise 3D site data, helping construction teams detect structural issues, measure elevations with millimeter accuracy, and plan efficiently. Its high accuracy improves design alignment, reduces errors, and enhances overall project execution.
