• Reality Capture: ReCap Pro supports various methods of reality capture including laser scanning (LiDAR), photogrammetry, and UAV (drone) photogrammetry. It enables users to import, view, and manage data from these sources.
• Point Cloud Processing: It provides tools for processing and manipulating point cloud data obtained from laser scans or photogrammetry. Users can clean up, edit, and enhance point clouds to prepare them for further use in design and construction workflows.
• Mesh and Model Creation: ReCap Pro allows users to create 3D meshes and models from point cloud data. These models can be used for visualization, analysis, and integration with other Autodesk software such as AutoCAD, Revit, and Navisworks.
• Registration and Alignment: The software includes tools for registering (aligning) multiple scans or photos to create a unified model of an entire site or object. This is crucial for creating accurate and comprehensive digital representations.
• Collaboration and Integration: ReCap Pro integrates seamlessly with other Autodesk products like AutoCAD, Revit, and Navisworks, enabling users to incorporate reality capture data into their existing design and engineering workflows.
• Data Analysis and Visualization: Users can analyze and visualize point cloud data to extract measurements, create annotations, and generate reports. This helps in understanding existing conditions and planning future design modifications.
• Export and Sharing: ReCap Pro allows users to export data in various formats suitable for different software applications and platforms. This facilitates collaboration with stakeholders who may use different tools or software.

ReCap vs. ReCap Pro :

With Autodesk ReCap software you are able to create accurate 3D models with reality capture using laser scanning. This software, which lets you convert reality into a 3D model or 2D drawing, actually comes in two flavors: ReCap and ReCap Pro. This blog post is here to explain the differences between the two.
