Revit RVT model
Select the architectural, structural and visible MEP elements to be modeled. Agree the Revit version, levels, grids, families, naming and required model information before production.
Scan to BIM in Monterey Park, California converts measured, visible building conditions into an editable Revit model and agreed IFC deliverables. Define the model elements, source data and checking criteria for renovation, design coordination or facilities documentation.
Monterey Park identifies El Encanto as the Spanish-style focal building of the former Midwick View Estates development, associated with the nearby Cascades and observation terrace. For a heritage-property brief, define whether the work concerns the building alone or also includes accessible exterior steps, terraces and walls.
Agree the building shell, roof, porticos and interior rooms to model, then define any exterior terrace or stair connections as named scope items. Keep the building model distinct from a landscape or topographic survey, and mark inaccessible connections instead of estimating them from appearance.
Select the architectural, structural and visible MEP elements to be modeled. Agree the Revit version, levels, grids, families, naming and required model information before production.
Request an agreed exchange model for coordination between BIM tools. Define the IFC version, property requirements and alignment with the native Revit model.
Registered E57 or agreed RCP/RCS data can be included in the scope. Define units, coordinates, segmentation and capture gaps. CAD drawings can be requested alongside the model.
| Project need | Scan to BIM | Scan to CAD |
|---|---|---|
| Primary output | Editable Revit RVT model and agreed IFC model | Agreed 2D DWG/DXF drawings and PDF sheets |
| Typical use | Existing-condition modeling, renovation design and model coordination | Measured plans, sections, elevations and fit-out drawing backgrounds |
| Define before production | Modeled elements, LOD, Revit version, coordinates and tolerance | Drawing list, layers, units, scales, datum and tolerance |
Share the address, area, floors, intended use and target date. Agree modeled elements, LOD, software version, coordinates, tolerance and exclusions.
Review existing point clouds for registration, alignment and visible coverage. Where new capture is needed, confirm site access, availability and the capture scope separately.
Model the selected visible or accessible elements in the agreed Revit version. Record gaps and assumptions; do not treat concealed construction as measured geometry.
Review the model against source data and agreed acceptance criteria. Deliver the specified native and exchange files with scope notes and recorded limitations.
These general AeroFrohne samples illustrate file formats and deliverable types. They are not presented as case studies from this city.

Existing E57 or RCP/RCS data can be reviewed for suitability. Provide the file format, registration information, units, coordinate reference, capture date and coverage. Gaps or alignment issues may require further evidence or additional capture.
No. LOD describes the agreed level of model development. The proposal must separately define modeled elements, dimensional tolerance, control, coordinates, software version, exclusions and acceptance criteria.
Depending on the agreed scope, outputs can include a native Revit RVT model, an IFC exchange model and registered E57 or RCP/RCS point-cloud data. Specify required versions, properties and any accompanying CAD drawings before production.
Scanning records visible, accessible surfaces. Concealed services, wall interiors and spaces outside the scan coverage require other verified evidence or further access. Any assumptions and exclusions must be recorded.
Availability is reviewed for the exact address, access conditions, scope and schedule. AeroFrohne is headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas, USA. A location page does not indicate a staffed local office; capture arrangements, fees and delivery dates are agreed in the proposal.
Send the project address, approximate square footage, floors, intended use, available scan data, required files and target date. Include access limits, tolerance, control and coordinate requirements. The proposal defines the accepted scope and deliverables.
Confirm field capture for the project address, access conditions, scope and schedule. AeroFrohne is headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas; a city service page does not indicate a staffed local office. Capture arrangements, fees and delivery dates are agreed in the proposal.
Compare project guidance for other locations in this region. Confirm service scope and any field capture arrangements for the actual project address.
