We will reach out to confirm prior to completing.

Instructions

1. Register the Data

Make sure your data is properly aligned before uploading.
It may be possible for us to register the data for you at an additional charge if you just want to provide the raw scans. Please contact us for more information.

2. Apply Color

Make sure the data has the color applied, if applicable.

3. Export as Structured E57 Files

Most scan processing software provides a way to export the data in a structured format.
Visit our E57 Validation Page to test if your E57 is the correct format.

Click here for instructions for exporting in FARO, Leica, and Trimble software packages.

FARO SCENE:
To provide FARO data, you can simply register the data in FARO SCENE, Apply the Color, then export it. No need to clean the data.

Upload Your Environment

Drag and drop your environment files below. We will automatically check each file for required structure.

Large files may take some time to upload — please be patient. After your files have been successfully uploaded, you will be automatically redirected to a secure payment page to complete your order for mesh creation.

⚠️ Important Note: The mesh we produce is intended for use in accident reconstruction—such as simulation software or animation workflows. However, due to factors like heavy traffic, incomplete coverage, or poor scan quality, the resulting mesh may contain holes or artifacts. Additional post-processing may be required depending on your intended application. High-quality, complete point cloud data is essential for achieving the best results.
