    Description

    Ever stared at a massive point cloud and thought, “Well, this is a beautiful mess”? You’re not alone. But fear not—ReCap Pro software’s new scan-to-mesh functionality is here to rescue your sanity (and your storage space). In this lighthearted yet practical session, we’ll show you how to tame the wild world of reality capture and turn all that on-site chaos into clean, gorgeous 3D meshes. You’ll learn how to go from raw scan data to a usable, sharable mesh model without pulling your hair out—or launching another “scanpocalypse” in your file directory. We’ll cover: When to mesh (and when not to), how to prep your scans for heavenly results, tips to avoid common meshing mishaps, and how these shiny new models play nice with Revit software, Navisworks software, and beyond. Whether you’re modeling existing conditions or just trying to impress your BIM manager, this session will have you saying, “mesh yeah!” by the end.
