Leica CloudWorx for Revit
Point Cloud Plugin for Revit
Leica CloudWorx for Revit is an innovative plug-in that allows users to efficiently utilize point cloud data as it is captured by laser scanners, directly in Revit, to enhance BIM modeling of existing buildings. This is useful for a wide range of BIM activities, including retrofit design, construction and operations, and lifecycle management of building assets. It provides a virtual site visit within Revit with a complete view of captured reality.
Users take advantage of Revit's familiar interface and tools to shorten the learning curve for working with laser scan data. Leica CloudWorx and the powerful point cloud engines Leica Cyclone and the new Leica JetStream enable Revit users to efficiently visualize and create BIM models from large point cloud datasets. Users gain all the benefits of a high-performance point cloud application directly in Revit.
Additional tools in CloudWorx for Revit allow precise fitting of steel, flanges, pipes, and 2D lines, or placement of walls, floors, structural members, doors, windows, mechanical equipment, etc. And CloudWorx for Revit allows direct import of COE models from Cyclone and/or export of Revit models as COE. This enables users to bring lightweight models created in Revit into Cyclone for further analysis or publish models to TruViews.

- Work in Revit with point clouds from any laser scanner or 3D sensor that creates point clouds
- Eliminate the need for time-consuming point cloud file format export/import processes
- Manipulate and navigate large point cloud datasets more quickly, including slices, sections, and limit boxes
- Place any Revit model element (walls, floors, structural members, etc.) from peaks in the point cloud
- Steel, flange, automatic pipe fittings, and 2D lines
- Smart as-built accessory catalog
- "Out-of-lead" wall modeling

- JetStream Experience
Leica Geosystems' JetStream point cloud engine offers users a simple means to collaborate on projects. By centralizing project data on a JetStream server, up to 10 users can simultaneously connect to any database through CloudWorx to create subsequent deliverables without "regeneration" delays, even when working with billions of points. JetStream offers unmatched productivity with greater fidelity in final results when working with point clouds in a CAD environment than competing formats. Users can also take advantage of JetStream's speed and clarity without the server by working with LGS files in CloudWorx instead of a Cyclone project. The JetStream Experience in CloudWorx for Revit demonstrates this time-saving and cost-reduction advantage directly in your current CloudWorx installation. Users can easily download and run the Experience by following the prompts in the software after clicking on the new JetStream Experience button on the menu ribbon.
