What you get

An ADS as-built is drawn from a LiDAR scan of your building, not from a tape. Depending on scope you get a registered 3D point cloud, a 360° digital twin to walk through in a browser, 2D CAD in AutoCAD and PDF (floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, elevations and sections), a Revit model at LOD 200–300, MEP and structural elements where they are needed, and BOMA or REBNY area calculations on request.

Our largest Florida project is the Gulfstream Mall in Hallandale Beach, a 506,000 sq ft open-air complex of retail, dining and office space documented in 2021 for renovation, leasing and expansion planning. The crew combined terrestrial LiDAR scanning with drone photogrammetry to cover the roofs and grounds, and delivered a point cloud, georeferenced orthophotos, as-built roof plans and site plans, and a Matterport walkthrough the leasing team could open remotely. James Cohen, VP at SBLM Architects, said the team "Delivered exactly what we needed — and fast." In Miami-Dade we scanned a 15,000 sq ft commercial warehouse in North Miami in May 2025; a 2,666 sq ft body-wellness medical suite in Edgewater in November 2024, modeled at LOD 300 with the ducts and sprinklers traced above the cabinetry and full-height glazing over the water; and in August 2022 the 28,405 sq ft National Hotel in Miami Beach's Art Deco Historic District, including its lobby, kitchen, basement, pool and terrace. Javier Fornaris Pau, managing principal at FPA Designs, said of the hotel: "The as-built documentation exceeded our expectations in accuracy, efficiency, and turnaround time. A truly reliable partner for any project."

How a Hollywood project runs: send the address, square footage and the deliverables you want and we return an itemized quote. ADS's office is at 1110 Brickell Ave, Suite 400 in Miami, and Broward work is run from there; travel, where it applies, is a line on the quote. On scan day a technician works through the property with the scanner while it stays open. The scans are registered into one point cloud, the drawings and model are drafted from it, and you review the set before final delivery.

Hollywood FAQ

What does it cost?
Floor area, the amount of detail, the deliverables you select and any travel set the price. Point cloud plus 2D CAD is the base tier; a Revit model adds modeling time; roof plans, site plans and exterior elevations are added when you need them. Every quote is itemized.

Is it worth bringing you in from out of town?
We are not far. ADS's office is in Miami at 1110 Brickell Ave, and Hollywood jobs are run from there; call (305) 560-4803 or 1-855-201-4043. Travel, if it applies, is a separate line on the quote.

How accurate is it?
We scan with Leica RTC360 and BLK2GO scanners and the Matterport Pro3 and draft from the registered point cloud, so dimensions are measured rather than assumed. Curtain walls and reflective glass, common along the beach, are handled by adjusting the scanner on site.

Does the building have to close?
No. Stores, offices, hotels and clinics stay open while we scan, and after-hours work can be arranged.

Will the drawings work for my permit?
Yes. Your architect or engineer uses the set as the existing-conditions base for the submittal. In Hollywood, permits go through the City of Hollywood Building Division at the Development Services Hub, 2600 Hollywood Blvd (954-921-3335); its ePermitsOneStop system lets you apply for the city permit and the associated Broward County permits in one process. One statewide rule that changes the scope of an as-built: under Florida Statute 553.899, condominium and cooperative buildings three stories or taller need a milestone structural inspection at 30 years (25 years within three miles of the coastline) and every ten years after.

Do you document shopping centers and multi-tenant properties?
Yes. The Gulfstream Mall scan covered 506,000 sq ft of retail, dining and office space, inside and out, with roof and site plans from drone photogrammetry and a virtual walkthrough for leasing. BOMA area calculations are available on request for any multi-tenant building.

Who owns the files?
You do. The point cloud, CAD, PDF and Revit files are delivered to you and the consultants you name.

Scanned by our crews in Broward and Miami-Dade

  • Gulfstream Mall
    Hallandale Beach, FL · 506,000 sq ft · 2021
    At this scale, ground scanning alone would not cover the property, so aerial and terrestrial data were merged. Leasing teams got a virtual walkthrough for remote access, and architects received CAD and BIM outputs.
  • Commercial Warehouse in North Miami
    North Miami, FL · 15,000 sq ft · 2025
    ADS surveyed this warehouse's interior and its exterior site boundaries, producing CAD-ready files for design, permitting and redevelopment, plus an analysis of circulation and access zones.
  • Body Wellness Suite in Edgewater (Biscayne Blvd)
    Miami, FL · 2,666 sq ft · 2024
    Overlooking Sabal Lake and the Intracoastal Waterway, this Edgewater suite is where non-surgical body contouring takes place. ADS scanned it with LiDAR and modeled built-in furniture, millwork and plumbing fixtures to support renovation planning.
  • National Hotel in Miami Beach
    Miami Beach, FL · 28,405 sq ft · 2022
    Deliverables for this 28,405 sq ft Miami Beach hotel: a Matterport tour, an LOD 200 Revit model, point cloud data and as-built drawings of the basement and first floor. Its crowded basement service areas were scanned with minimal disruption.
