Hi!  How are you?  I hope all is well.
 
Just a quick question.  Can I open LSA or E57 files of 3D scans in Recap and export them out as RCP files to be linked into a Revit file?
 
Please kindly let me know as soon as possible.  This is a hot item for our client.  Your help in this regard would be most truly appreciated.  Thank you very much!
 
Best regards,
Steve

Steven,

Welcome to Autodesk ReCap Forum!

Only my mention:

LAS data format have "open status" and there are some software that can work with them befor import to ReCap - for example popular toolsets "LASTools". Some Users have difficulties to import to ReCap large LAS files.

E57 is "closed" data format, it have more ordered structure and more stable as LAS. No problem if you want export your project as RCP file to other Autodesk software, such Revit, because Autodesk provide good internal interaction between products  for stable and comfortable work. Other mean - you can import your RCP project to Navisworks and insert that data in Revit as more stable file as coordination model.
