Turning Point Clouds
into accurate 3D Models
Project
Overview
At DCMS, we conducted a comprehensive 3D laser scan and existing conditions survey of this 5,922-square-foot custom home in Los Alamos, New Mexico. The goal was to provide detailed as-built documentation that would assist the client’s renovation team in designing updates while maintaining the home’s original architectural integrity.
By utilizing LiDAR scanning technology and high-resolution point cloud processing, our team captured precise measurements, ensuring that architects and designers had an accurate foundation for planning modifications.
