Models are powerful tools for understanding complex, real world environments. In the AEC industry models are increasingly used both as a precursor to new construction and to understand as-built conditions prior to repair, restoration or redevelopment. Our 3D models can be as detailed or as simple as a client requests. For example, we can create simple large scale city block models, detailed CAD models of historic buildings or BIM models of existing buildings.

There are many benefits to 3D information:

• 3D models are more realistic and easier to interpret than 2D drawings
• 3D models allow the physical relationship between buildings, adjacent structures and environment to be better understood
• 3D models facilitate clash detection reducing design and construction errors as well as time and cost
• BIM models contain both spatial and attribute information creating an intelligent 3D building database
• Improved understanding results in better communication between the project team
