What you get
Lakeland itself is not yet on our project list, but the nearest published ADS job is close: the Supermarket Building in Bradenton, 64,115 sq ft on two floors, scanned with a Matterport Pro3 over five days in April 2025. The building was vacant and some zones had no lighting; LiDAR captured the geometry regardless, and the client received a point cloud, a 360° twin, floor plans, a roof plan, exterior elevations and an LOD 300 Revit model ahead of a full restoration. Tom Rockwell of Rockwell Contracting said "Clear communication and quick delivery made everything seamless." Other Florida work includes the 13,065 sq ft Surf Style store in Fort Myers Beach, the 8,426 sq ft Boca Grande Residence and a 1,053 sq ft house in Jacksonville.
For a Lakeland building the deliverables are drawn from one registered LiDAR point cloud: 2D CAD in AutoCAD and PDF (floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, elevations and sections), a Revit model at LOD 200–300 where your consultants work in BIM, exposed MEP and structural elements where scoped, and a 360° digital twin for review without a site visit. BOMA or REBNY area calculations are available for lease work.
The job runs in order: you send the address, approximate square footage and deliverables; we return an itemized quote with travel to Lakeland as its own line; a technician scans while the warehouse, office or store keeps operating; the scans are registered and drafted; you review and we revise before final delivery.
Lakeland FAQ
What does it cost?
Floor area, how much is in the building, the deliverables you choose and travel. A distribution warehouse with open bays scans fast but may need structure and MEP drawn; a finished office needs reflected ceiling plans. Point cloud and 2D CAD is the base tier, Revit adds modelling, and the quote is itemized.
Is it worth bringing you in from out of town?
Travel to Lakeland is one line on the quote, so you can set it against the cost of measuring by hand. Bradenton, our nearest published project, was a comparable trip and was scanned in a single week.
How accurate is it?
All dimensions are measured by the scanner and drawn from the point cloud; column grids, clear heights and dock openings in a warehouse are recorded as built, not as the original plans intended.
Does the building have to close?
No. We scan around forklifts, staff and customers during normal hours, and can work evenings or weekends where a client prefers.
Will the drawings work for my permit?
Yes, as the existing-conditions base your architect or engineer submits. Inside the city limits that goes to the City of Lakeland Building Inspection Division, which takes permit applications through its iMS system with plans uploaded to ePlan. Condominium and co-op buildings three stories or taller are also subject to Florida's milestone inspection law (F.S. 553.899).
Who owns the files?
You do. The point cloud, CAD, PDF and Revit files are delivered to you and your consultants.

Fort Myers Beach, FL · 13,065 sq ft · 2024
The beachfront glazed storefront of this Surf Style store was modeled precisely to support a resilient redesign and access planning. Inside, ADS recorded wall layouts, ceiling structures and floor-level elements left after the hurricane. - Boca Grande Residence
Boca Grande, FL · 8,426 sq ft · 2024
ADS captured this coastal home's interior and exterior in a single two-hour visit, then ran a Scan-to-BIM workflow covering architecture, structure and visible MEP. Interior finishes were modeled to LOD 350. - Single-Family House in Jacksonville
Jacksonville, FL · 1,053 sq ft · 2024
Remote coordination shaped the deliverables for this Northwest Jacksonville house: a 360° digital walkthrough sat alongside 2D AutoCAD plans and elevations, georeferenced orthophotos and a high-density point cloud, all reflecting existing site and building conditions.
