Tips For Getting The Most From Your Scan

To maximize the value of your LiDAR scan, preparation and communication are key. The more aligned your team is with the scanning provider, the more efficient and accurate your results will be.

Follow these tips for a successful scan:

• Set clear project goals – Know what deliverables you need and how you’ll use them.
• Communicate site access details – Ensure the scan team knows where and when they can work.
• Prepare the environment – Clear out unnecessary objects that may interfere with line of sight.
• Identify problem areas – Point out zones that need special attention or detail.
• Discuss file formats early – Clarify which outputs (RVT, ESX, DWG, etc.) are required.

When planned correctly, LiDAR site scanning becomes a valuable asset in your workflow rather than just another task to complete.
