In the world of digital documentation for buildings, labeling an as-built model as a BIM doesn't necessarily make it one. In this post, we explore the specific requirements that must be met for an as-built model to be considered a true BIM.

HOW TO IMPROVE THE REGISTRATION OF BUILDING EXTERIORS
In March 2021 I had the pleasure to be a panelist on the Scan-to-BIM University Webinar. Some of the questions we received after the live session were related to best practices for improving registrations of building exteriors. Since such a topic would have helped me when I started adopting 3D Laser Scanning in 2010, I want to share what I have learned over the last 11 years of scanning. My hope is that you would benefit from my experience and together we can improve the building documentation practice.
RTC360 - THE GOOD AND THE BAD
Since Leica launched the RTC360 scanner in 2018, it has been a lot of excitement around this unit, and rightfully so. It is faster than anything in its class, it is lightweight, and it comes with the VIS technology that helps pre-register the scans in the field.
It sounded like a dream machine, so the RCMonkeys team decided to put it to the test.
