And it fits

2D digitizations

Old paper plans, construction documents or PDF files are manually vectorized into precise, true-to-scale 2D CAD plans. The digitized drawings can be further processed in all common CAD systems and form a clean basis for conversion, renovation or archiving.

Digital CAD plans from paper plans and PDFs

With 2D digitization of paper plans or PDFs, you receive exact CAD files in DWG or DXF format - ideal for direct access to your CAD planning.

Existing plans are accurately traced and converted into structured CAD files.

Typical results of 2D digitization:

  • DWG and DXF files from paper plans or PDFs
  • Digital floor plans, sections and views
  • directly editable CAD plans for architecture and planning offices

This creates editable CAD plans that can be further processed directly.

Old plans become usable again

Even older paper plans or scanned PDF plan material can be converted into a usable digital planning basis.

This saves a lot of time, especially in early project phases, because existing information is quickly made available.

Typical use cases are

  • Digitization of old as-built plans
  • Preparation of archive plans
  • Conversion of scanned construction plans into CAD
  • Standardization of different plan statuses

This creates a clear digital plan basis for further planning steps from existing documents.

Efficient solution for current as-built plans

If the content of existing paper or PDF plans is up to date and matches the existing plans, 2D digitization is often the most efficient solution.

In these cases, existing plans can be digitized directly and prepared for further planning.

This is particularly suitable for

  • current as-built plans
  • Complete floor plans
  • Existing sections and facades
  • Projects with already documented building structures

This quickly creates a clean digital CAD basis on which further planning can be built.
