Faro As-Built for AutoCAD is a specialized plugin that transforms laser scan point clouds into intelligent 2D drawings and 3D models within the AutoCAD environment. Designed for professionals who need accurate documentation of existing conditions, it provides powerful tools for extracting walls, pipes, equipment, and structural elements directly from Faro scan data. The software streamlines the traditional “scan-to-CAD” workflow by automating repetitive tracing tasks and providing intelligent snapping to point cloud geometry, enabling faster production of as-built documentation for renovation, facility management, and retrofit projects.
This specialized CAD software is designed for:
CAD Drafters & Technicians creating 2D/3D as-built drawings from scan data.
Surveyors & Mappers converting point clouds into precise linework and plans.
MEP Drafters documenting existing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
Industrial Plant Designers modeling existing facilities and piping networks.
Forensic Documenters & Insurance Adjusters creating accurate records of existing conditions.
Intelligent Point Cloud Tracing Tools: Automated and semi-automated tools for extracting lines, polylines, and 3D solids from point cloud data.
Point Cloud Snapping Engine: Precision drawing tools that snap directly to point cloud vertices for accurate as-built drafting.
Cross-Section & Elevation Generation: Create 2D slices and elevations from 3D point clouds for traditional drawing production.
Point Cloud Classification & Filtering: Organize and filter scan data by color, intensity, or classification to isolate specific building elements.
3D Pipe & Conduit Extraction: Specialized tools for tracing and modeling piping and conduit systems from industrial scan data.
DWG Compatibility & Layer Management: Full integration with AutoCAD’s layer system and drawing standards.
Enhanced AI-Assisted Tracing: Machine learning algorithms that recognize and suggest common building elements for faster extraction.
Support for AutoCAD 2026: Full compatibility with the latest AutoCAD release.
Improved Performance Engine: Faster point cloud loading and rendering for large scan projects.
