If your 3D laser scanning projects require efficient software solution for accurately converting point cloud data into 3D BIM models & deliverables, this Undet solution might be exactly what you’re looking for. By combining the powerful Undet add-on tools with Autodesk Revit capabilities, we offer you an intuitive workflow to create an accurate documentation of the building, including a complete BIM model quickly and easily. The Undet for Revit add-on not only enhances point cloud performance and addresses the pain of modelling from point cloud but also offers cost-effectiveness, making it a valuable tool for 3D laser scanning service providers as well as anyone looking for scan-to-BIM software solution!
The latest Undet for Revit 2025.1 update includes the following features:
1. Slice 3D Point Cloud RCP
The Slice Manager allows you to define and control horizontal or vertical slices through the 3D point cloud. These slices can be viewed directly in plan, elevation, or section views, giving you a much clearer and more focused view of the specific range you’re working in. This makes it easier to model accurately using the point cloud and often eliminates the need to create raster images for minor or quick modeling tasks. It’s especially useful when dealing with large or complex scans.
2. Instance to Type
Instead of manually creating multiple door/window types for different sizes, you can adjust their size using instance parameter grips to fit the point cloud in as-built models. Then, with one click, these instances are converted into proper types with automatically named formats like [Width]x[Height]mm.
3. Model in Place to Family Creator
When modeling new elements in as-built projects, creating families from scratch can be time-consuming. Now, you can create a model-in-place element using point cloud or raster reference, and then convert it into a standard family. This makes the element reusable, schedulable, and easy to place in multiple locations.
4. 3D Model to Undet Browser
You can now bring your Revit 3D model into the Undet Browser, where it overlays the model on top of real scan photos. This makes it very easy to visually compare the model with the actual site and check modeling accuracy.
5. New Color Gradient in Pano QC
Previously, Pano QC only used two colors (red and green) to show whether a model is within or outside the tolerance. Now, a color gradient can show three levels of accuracy, giving you more detailed insight into how closely the model matches the scan.
6. Load and Unload 3D Point Cloud
You can now load and unload point cloud RCP files directly without going through the “Manage Links” tab. It’s a small change, but it greatly simplifies the workflow when handling large point clouds.
