Why South Texas Owners and Design Teams Choose SCENA
San Antonio hospital systems, hospitality operators, architects, and GCs hire SCENA when medical center floors, River Walk hotels, and commercial buildings from Boerne to New Braunfels need measured existing conditions. Our South Texas office has covered this market since 2019 with crews that deliver files consultants can open immediately after handoff.
Hospital renovations and hotel portfolio work stall when drawings disagree with the field. One capture produces registered point clouds, 2D CAD, RCPs, sections, elevations, and Revit when BIM is in scope, so coordination starts from a shared baseline across Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, and the downtown core.
SCENA is not a licensed surveyor or engineer. We document existing conditions so your stamped professionals design from verified geometry on every package.
Survey-Grade Capture
LiDAR Scanning for San Antonio Medical and Commercial Work
San Antonio construction documentation typically begins with LiDAR. NavVis VLX 3 wearable and MLX handheld scanners capture occupied clinics, hotels, and offices at walking pace, building a dense registered cloud without clearing patients or guests from the floor.
The cloud feeds as-built drawings and Scan to BIM. We deliver E57 and LAS for coordination, then push clean geometry into CAD and Revit workflows. Ground control is available when absolute accuracy matters. See our Scan to BIM page for the pipeline.
Medical, Hospitality, and Industrial Capture
Mobile LiDAR fits hospital wings, hotel floors, distribution warehouses over one million square feet, and full factory floors modeled down to the machinery.
Clouds Ready for Clinical Renovation Coordination
Registered data is checked before handoff so demo plans, clash detection, and Scan to BIM start from trusted geometry.

Digital Twins & Virtual Tours
Matterport Tours for River Walk Hospitality and Campuses
SCENA has been a Matterport service partner since 2016. San Antonio crews run Matterport Pro 3 when hotel brands, brokers, or facilities leads need a walkable visual layer from the same visit that produces CAD.
A tour is not a substitute for as-built drawings or Revit. It is the visual twin that sits beside documentation so remote stakeholders share one view. Tours process in the Matterport cloud and are walkable within 24 hours, often sooner. As-built files follow within five business days or less. Twin options are on our digital twins page.
Hotel and Leasing Walkthroughs
River Walk, Stone Oak, and Alamo Heights properties use Matterport so guests and prospects tour before another trip into the city.
Visual Layer Beside Your CAD Set
Keep an access-controlled twin with your DWG and Revit package so FM and construction see real finishes beside linework.
Deliverables
As-Built Drawings, CAD Plans and Revit Models
San Antonio packages include as-built drawings and an as-built survey of existing conditions: E57 and LAS point clouds, 2D CAD and AutoCAD DWG plans, RCPs, sections, elevations, plus Revit, SketchUp or other Scan-to-BIM models on request.
Typical documentation turnaround is within five business days or less after capture. Tours are walkable within 24 hours of the scan, often sooner. Formats are on our as-built documentation page.
An as-built package is a different job from the tour: we scan with the instrument the project calls for, usually NavVis mobile mapping on large buildings, export an E57 point cloud, then our in-house engineering team builds the drawings and models from it to your standards, interior, exterior, or custom to what your team needs.
