Guide: Manual for Scan to BIM with the Elios 3

We know that Scan to BIM requires accurate data that is carefully processed and presented to match industry standards. Our step-by-step guide explains the entire process in detail.

In a recent whitepaper, we analyzed how and why the Elios 3 can be used for Scan to BIM workflows. To add to our resources on Scan to BIM, we’ve created a detailed guide going through the entire process from data capture to presentation. 

This free guide authored by Flyability is based on a detailed case study where an entire cement plant was digitized and a BIM  model was created. Using the Elios 3 for this type of data collection saved the site managers 9 additional days of scanning compared to the single day’s work required with the Elios 3.

This detailed manual explains how to use Flyability’s Inspector 5, FARO Connect, AutoDesk ReCap, and AutoDesk Revit to create a BIM model from drone data. This is focused on the Elios 3’s LiDAR payload, which is a powerful sensor designed by Ouster.
