Turn Physical Environments into Digital Data
ReCap Pro 2024 helps users transform captured information about buildings, construction sites, infrastructure, and terrain into detailed digital representations. Laser scans can be indexed, organized, and registered into a unified point cloud that reflects the existing conditions of a real location.
Organize and Classify Point Clouds
The 2024 release expands point classification capabilities across different scan types. Users can automatically identify ground points, manually assign selected points to classes, reclassify data, lock classifications, and convert previously created regions into classification groups. These tools make complex datasets easier to inspect and prepare for downstream design work.
Extract Useful Information from Scan Data
Measurement, annotation, and feature extraction tools help turn point clouds into practical project information. Users can identify relevant geometry, record dimensions, mark important areas, and create reusable extraction templates for more consistent reality capture workflows.
Prepare Existing Conditions for Design
ReCap Pro 2024 supports scan-to-BIM and infrastructure workflows by providing architects and engineers with an accurate reference for existing conditions. Processed point clouds can be used with Autodesk applications such as Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and InfraWorks to support renovation, documentation, coordination, and planning.
Manage Large Reality Capture Projects
Users can combine scans from supported devices, control point density through intelligent decimation, and organize datasets into regions and classifications. Cloud publishing options also make it easier to review captured environments and share project information with other participants.
