Revit - Point Clouds - Automatic Feature Extraction
Revit - Point Clouds - Automatic Feature Extraction
Hello,
I started using Revit to import my point cloud data. I was looking on how to generate the BIM from the point cloud.
But all the tutorials I found available online basically just use the points as reference to start defining floor plans and structures. It looks like a manual process.
Is there no automated feature extraction in Revit?
There is no magic wand that would change a poincloud to a BIM model. It's relatively easy to convert a pointcloud to a 'dumb' 3d model, but it will basically a single mesh. It would require a proper A.I. for a computer to say that a ceiling is a ceiling and not a floor or a roof, just by looking at bunch of points 🙂
But seriously now.. There are a few software packages like Scan to BIM or Faro Point Sense that speed up the manual process.
I imagined that there would not be anything miraculous, but I thought that at least some basic feature extracting would be available, like extracting walls.
This way I would be able to get a partial model to work on. I'll take a look at the other applications you mentioned.
Did you check out the Edgewise software? It allows you to extract and edit walls, doors, and windows automatically. Then, you can edit them in Pointsense for Revit.
