Point Cloud Data & CAD Integration

Digitizing existing plants and buildings today requires precise, complete, and efficient methods of data capture and processing. Laser scanning produces highly accurate point clouds that provide a realistic image of the environment. But only through intelligent post-processing do these data become a reliable foundation for planning, design, and engineering.

This is where UNITEC Informationssysteme GmbH comes in – with solutions that seamlessly integrate point clouds into your CAD and planning processes.

1. Selective Conversion of Point Cloud Data
   Not every piece of information in a point cloud is relevant for planning. Our tools and methods allow you to selectively choose sections and convert them into surface models.
   Advantages:
   • Reduced data volumes for more efficient processing
   • Compatibility with common CAD systems (e.g., AutoCAD, Solid Edge, Plant 3D)
   • Increased efficiency, since only relevant data are transferred into the design model
2. Combining CAD Models with Point Clouds
   By overlaying 3D-CAD models with real-world point clouds, a digital overall picture is created that offers invaluable benefits in planning and coordination:
   • Early error detection – deviations become visible before costs arise
   • Target/actual comparison – perfect foundation for client meetings and coordination with planning partners
   • Visual transparency – makes communication easier between all project participants

Many companies face the following problems when working with point clouds:

• Large data volumes that overload systems
• Manual re-modeling that is time- and cost-intensive
• Media discontinuities when moving from laser scan data to CAD environments

With UNITEC solutions, these obstacles are a thing of the past.

• More transparency throughout the planning process
• Reduced rework thanks to automated data integration
• Greater planning security for complex plants and construction projects
• Future-proof data basis, also usable for expansions and follow-up systems
• Over 25 years of experience in digitization, CAD integration, and system integration
