Overview

In recent years, Building Information Modeling (BIM) is getting more attention, and thus,
creating models for BIM applications is getting more popular as well. On top of that, a very
quick and effective way of capturing reality is via laser scanning, so creating as-built
models from laser scan data (pointcloud) is the most efficient method.

This programme aims to provide you with an overview and general knowledge regarding creating models from pointcloud using a solution provided by Trimble Sketchup.

Key Takeaways

At the end of this programme, you will be able to:

  • use various native tools in Sketchup to create accurate 3D models for BIM applications as well as other downstream usage
  • import and manipulate scan data in the Sketchup environment for the purpose of creating a digital twin

Who Should Attend

  • Please refer to the job roles section. 
  • BIM managers and modelling personnel. 
  • 2D CAD drafting technicians progressing into 3D modeling.
  • Public Service Officers looking to create a digital twin of the built structure.
