IFC for OpenBIM & Autodesk

RoomScan IFC exports aren’t just 3D, they’re a structured architectural model with storeys, rooms, doors and windows all connected into a semantic model of the home. As-built sections and elevations can be created in moments. See it in action, or try it yourself by downloading this sample and uploading it to viewer.autodesk.com or your favourite BIM software.

XML Floor Plans & Property Data

RoomScan outputs an easy-to-process XML format that your development team will find simple to integrate, whether you need a few key facts like floor areas or the full geometry of the property. We provide documentation and sample code in Microsoft C#.

USDZ 3D Models

Create a 3D model of your home and share it by iMessage with anyone — because USDZ is the native Apple 3D format, they can even view it in AR without needing to install anything.

SketchUp

DAE export for SketchUp is currently unavailable in iOS 16, but we have a workaround to ensure you can export your 3D dollhouse model from RoomScan to SketchUp — just contact support for assistance.

PDF Export Options

A wide range of high quality PDF output options are available with thousands of different possibilities for labelling and styling. All are high quality vector outputs suitable for high resolution printing, or editing for final presentation in drawing software.

DXF for CAD

DXF is compatible with a huge range of CAD software. Here’s a sample from RoomScan. For more modern CAD applications, try IFC format.

Microsoft Excel

Export a summary of room sizes and areas with an inventory of doors and windows, ideal for construction projects. Or choose the Heat Loss Parameters Report with details for heating calculations such as internal and external wall perimeters .

Point Clouds: PLY, OBJ, XYZ

RoomScan LiDAR automatically creates a connected point cloud model of the property as you scan each room. You can export the full property or room-by-room in three standard formats: PLY, OBJ and XYZ, compatible with almost any point cloud software including Autodesk Revit.

PNG Images

If you just need a quick floor plan as an image, RoomScan makes it easy. RoomScan can even arrange the floors of your plan to fit neatly into photo dimensions for upload into your property software.

RapidSketch

Export your appraisal or insurance floor plan directly from RoomScan into Majesco RapidSketch — it’ll appear in RapidSketch as if you’d drawn it by hand.

Xactimate®

RoomScan Pro LiDAR exports in ESX format. Easy peasy, just drop the file into Xactimate’s Claims window and you’re done.

Metropix®

Have customers who still require floor plans in Metropix format? WIth RoomScan that’s no problem — all you need is their Metropix account name and RoomScan uploads directly into their Metropix account.
