How the point cloud viewer makes 3D laser scan data easier to use
Point clouds are one of the most valuable outputs from reality capture, but they have not always been easy for every stakeholder to use. Architects, engineers, contractors, owners, and facilities teams may need the information inside a point cloud, but not everyone has specialized software or the technical background to navigate dense 3D data confidently. That is […]
How Hexagon Multivista Create services help airport models stay close to real conditions
Airport modernization projects depend on accurate models, but airports are difficult environments to model. They combine active passenger areas, dense building systems, security requirements, operational workflows, and phased construction in spaces that often cannot stop functioning while renovation work moves forward. That makes the connection between real field conditions and project models especially important. When airport […]
From unification to execution: Introducing Hexagon Multivista Hub
Earlier this year, Hexagon introduced Hexagon Multivista, bringing together multiple AECO brands under a single, unified portfolio. The goal was to simplify how construction teams work by aligning services that support the full project lifecycle, from reality capture through modeling and analysis. That rebrand responded to long‑standing challenges in the construction industry. Teams often manage […]
How visualization and simulation help AECO teams move beyond drawings and renderings
Traditional drawings, BIM views, and static renderings still matter. But when teams need broader stakeholder alignment, training, or operational planning, those outputs do not always provide enough context on their own. Many stakeholders can review a drawing and understand the design intent. Fewer can fully grasp what the finished environment will feel like, how people […]
How can scan-to-BIM improve large-scale commercial construction projects in EMEA?
Large-scale commercial construction projects in EMEA rarely begin with perfect information. Teams are often renovating occupied space, upgrading legacy building systems, or coordinating phased work across multiple sites that must remain operational throughout construction. When existing drawings are incomplete or out of date, the project starts with assumptions, which can quickly turn into RFIs, clashes, delays, […]
Hexagon Multivista Create services for oil and gas in LATAM: From skids to digital twins
Oil and gas teams in LATAM work in high-consequence environments where coordination and documentation need to hold up in the field. Crowded racks, fast-track installs, and tie-ins that must land cleanly leave little room for ambiguity. Hexagon Multivista Create services include comprehensive modeling, visualization, and digital twin consulting services from design to operations. They transform captured reality into coordinated models, constructible documentation, and […]
3D Modeling vs. 2D Drafting: Choosing the right deliverable for the field
Project teams often treat models and drawings as interchangeable, then wonder why field questions pile up. The difference is simple but operationally important: 3D modeling is built for coordination and decision making across systems, while 2D drafting is built for communication and control on install. When you match the deliverable to the job to be done, you reduce RFIs, […]
AI vs human expertise in AECO: Finding the right balance
Artificial intelligence is already reshaping how AECO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations) teams design, coordinate, and track construction. But the day-to-day question is rarely “Should we use AI?” It is “What should AI do, and what still needs an accountable expert?” The most reliable approach is not replacement. It is a human-led workflow where automation handles repeatable tasks quickly, and experienced […]
