Existing Conditions
Create a dependable digital record of visible physical conditions to support design, coordination, modification and future project decisions.

Existing-condition documentation records what is physically present at an agreed time and within an agreed scope. Laser scanning can provide a coordinated spatial reference for developing that record.
Outdated drawings, incomplete records and complicated site geometry create uncertainty. A planned reality-capture scope gives the project team a clearer reference for the conditions it needs to understand.
The appropriate output may be a registered point cloud, drawings, a 3D model, a BIM deliverable or another agreed record. The capture and processing plan should follow the required decision, not a generic package.
Reality-capture documentation does not by itself constitute licensed land-surveying or professional-engineering services. Any regulated scope should be identified and contracted appropriately.
Common Questions
Useful inputs include the project location, the areas to be captured, site access conditions, the intended use of the data, the desired deliverables and the required timeline. Drawings, markups and representative site images can help define scope.
The physical size and complexity of the environment, access and safety constraints, required scan coverage, travel, processing needs, modeling scope, deliverable requirements and schedule all affect the project plan.
Instrument configuration, range, surface characteristics, environmental conditions, scan geometry, registration method, control requirements and the intended use of the data all matter. Appropriate expectations should be defined for each project rather than treated as a universal number.
