Point clouds, orthoprojections and 3D models for surveys and CAD/BIM workflows
For architects and BIM coordinators, we configure capture and delivery around the required outcome: façades, plans, sections, a mesh or a point cloud.
For architecture and BIM
Façade orthoprojections
Agreed plans and sections
CAD/GIS/BIM formats defined before delivery
Turn photographs into a geometric working base
Separate photographs are visually useful but do not provide continuous geometry for measurement. Photogrammetric capture targets the coverage and overlap needed to reconstruct visible elements.
Hidden areas, reflective surfaces or fine-detail requirements may need additional capture or another method. These limits are discussed before quotation.

Planned capture
The image network is adapted to the building shape, visibility and requested result.
Inspectable geometry
The point cloud and mesh support visual inspection and measurement within the acquired data.
Team-ready delivery
Formats and processing level are agreed with the architect or BIM coordinator.
3D data and orthoprojections in useful formats
The published FAE Drones workflow includes point cloud, textured mesh, façade orthoprojections, plans, sections and a web model. Documented formats include LAS/LAZ, OBJ, PLY, FBX, 3DS, COLLADA, GeoTIFF and KMZ/KML, plus other agreed CAD/GIS/BIM formats.
The web model is optimised for review and does not replace the delivered technical file.
Published models and capture networks for Bran and Prejmer
The FAE Drones portfolio publishes 3D models and camera-network examples for Bran Castle and the fortified church at Prejmer. The technical page separates capture, reconstruction and delivery formats.
These examples let a team assess the type of result before defining its own asset requirements.
Public examples illustrate the workflow and output types; detail and coverage depend on access, visibility and each project's specification.

Tell us what you need to measure, the area or asset and the final format. We review feasibility, control and deliverables before mobilisation.
