LIDAR Ground Scanning & Internal BIM Modelling
Complete Digital Reality Capture – From Sky to Ground
UK Air Comms is known for delivering high-precision drone surveys across the telecoms, construction and renewables sectors.
We now enhance that capability with terrestrial LIDAR ground scanning, allowing us to capture both external and internal environments with survey-grade accuracy.
The result?
A complete digital representation of your assets inside and out.
Why Combine Drone & Ground LIDAR?
Drone surveys provide exceptional external coverage: rooftops, elevations, towers, masts and large structures.
Ground-based LIDAR scanning complements this by capturing:
- Internal plant rooms
- Equipment layouts
- Structural elements
- Cable routes and containment
- Access routes and confined spaces
- Detailed façade data at ground level
Together, this creates a fully coordinated dataset for BIM production.
From Point Cloud to BIM
Our workflow delivers:
- High-density LIDAR point clouds
- Registered and geo-referenced datasets
- Clash-detection-ready 3D models
- BIM models to required LOD specifications
- As-built documentation
Whether you require a basic 3D visualisation or a fully detailed Revit-ready model, UK Air Comms provides reliable, structured outputs that integrate directly into your design workflow.
