Beveridge Williams: Elevating Surveying with Drone, Scanning & BIM Innovation

Beveridge Williams is redefining spatial intelligence through advanced drone surveying, multi-platform laser scanning (ground, airborne and vehicle), and BIM—delivering precision, speed, and clarity across every phase of development.

  • Drone & Aerial LiDAR Surveying
  • Using UAV platforms equipped with high-resolution sensors and LiDAR, BW captures detailed spatial data across vast and challenging terrains. These aerial surveys offer:
  • Rapid coverage of large or inaccessible areas
  • Vegetation-penetrating LiDAR for accurate terrain modelling
  • Georeferenced outputs for seamless integration into GIS and BIM workflows
  • Orthophoto generation for distortion-free mapping

 

 Terrestrial & Mobile Laser Scanning

BW deploys both static and vehicle-mounted laser scanning systems to suit the environment and project scale:

  • Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) provides millimetre-accurate point clouds for all sites, including built environments, ecology, and greenfield sites.
  • Mobile laser scanning (MLS) enables efficient corridor mapping for roads, rail, and urban infrastructure—capturing streetscapes and linear assets with speed and precision.
  • All scans can be processed into dense 3D models and digital twins, supporting design, clash detection, and asset management.

 

BIM Integration & Digital Modelling

Beveridge Williams transforms spatial data into intelligent BIM models that:

  • Embed technical metadata for lifecycle planning
  • Support Scan-to-BIM workflows for renovations and retrofits
  • Enable collaborative design, construction monitoring, and future-proof planning

 

GIS-Enabled Workflows with QGIS

Spatial outputs may be integrated into QGIS, allowing:

  • Layered analysis with planning overlays, cadastral data, and environmental constraints
  • Custom symbology and styling for stakeholder engagement
  • Plugin-based workflows for LiDAR, terrain modelling, and BIM coordination

 

Industry Recognition & Best Practice

With an award-winning reputation for technical excellence and innovation, BW applies best-practice methodologies including:

  • Ground control validation for spatial accuracy
  • Scan-to-BIM and GIS integration for end-to-end project intelligence

Whether it’s a metro tunnel, a mixed-use precinct, greenfield, or a heritage restoration, Beveridge Williams combines technology, expertise, and insight to deliver spatial solutions that drive better decisions.

Data You Can Trust, Every Time

At Beveridge Williams, we know that reliable data underpins every successful project. Whether you need a rapid site scan, a detailed 3D model, or highly precise measurements, we combine the right technology with the right expertise to deliver results you can depend on.

Our survey teams use the latest mobile and terrestrial laser scanners, UAVs, and drone technology to capture sites in exceptional detail. From there, we can provide everything from raw point cloud data to fully modelled BIM outputs, tailored to your project’s requirements and accuracy standards.

No matter the scale or complexity, we deliver the data you need, in the format you need so that you can move your project forward with confidence.

 

Expanding with Mobile Laser Scanning

We’ve expanded our spatial capabilities with the introduction of mobile laser scanning (MLS) technology, strengthening our ability to provide fast, high-accuracy data capture across large and complex project areas, without disrupting operations on the ground.

With MLS, we can rapidly collect dense, georeferenced point cloud data across road corridors, infrastructure assets, and built environments. Backed by our in-house processing workflows and robust QA systems, we transform this data into deliverables you can trust, from feature surveys to 3D models and digital twins.

Whether for design, monitoring, or asset management, our mobile laser scanning services provide the speed, accuracy, and insight you need to keep your project moving forward.
