    1. Unlocking the Future: 3D Scanning and BIM Mastery for Land Surveyors SAGI Members

    1. What is BIM or Building Information Modelling ?

    2. How a detailed 3D Revit Model, produced from laser scanning, aligns with and supports the expanded definition of BIM

    3. A deeper understanding of why BIM is being increasingly adopted in the built environment industry, especially in the context of refurbishment projects.

    4. Why BIM is being adopted in the Construction Industry:

    5. What is BIM from a Surveyor and Point Cloud generation viewpoint?

    6. Reading : Point Clouds – The Future of Geospatial Mapping

    7. Conclusion : Revolutionizing Building Refurbishment: How Terrestrial Laser Scanning and 3D Revit Models Save Time, Money, and Mitigate Risk

    8. Final Thoughts

    1. Overview of 3D Terrestrial Scanning

    2. Evolution of Scanning Technologies

    3. Characteristics and Features of 3D Terrestrial Scanning

    1. Video introduction into 3D scanning, targets and registration.

    2. Some best practices for 3D Terrestrial Scanning

    1. The process for importing Point Cloud into Revit
