@@TheRevitKid just watched the ultimate revit computer video vid and I’m regretting the GV100 I am currently running. Very cool Chanel. Let me know if you want some high end electrical sub BIM input in the future.
Thank Jeff! Great tutorial. I'm going to give it a try. Very useful for preliminary work without investing too much time. This tutorial is worth the subscription to The Revit Kid.
Awesome George! So glad you liked it. Yes, we like to use this when modeling sites in Revit without any other information... It sure beats bringing in a snipped image of a google maps and using that!!
Thanks Jeff this was really helpful! One issue I was having is that the RCS export file type option doesn't appear unless you select 'aerial' as the project type and click the 3D point cloud box. It seems that you were able to export the RCS using the 'object' mode but I'm not seeing this currently in my ReCap for some reason. I did some tests using my drone (DJI Mavic Air 2) using both images taken from the drone and frame exports from the drone video. Even though I shot the video in 4K the quality of the model from the images was better. This takes a little longer to take the individual shots from multiple angles but if you are looking for the best resolution you should use drone images instead of frame exports from video. Also the size of the images was less than the size of the 4k video, plus you then had the size of the images from the frame exports on top of that. The object setting was also better for quality than the aerial setting, though the aerial setting would work fine if all you are looking for is background context...VDC 4 life!
Used to be an app called 3D ripper years ago - would take the Open GL memory area and rip the maps and textures and convert to an OBJ if I recall correctly. Really wish Infraworks and Autodesk worked with Google and not Open streets/Microsoft. Google's images much better and up to date with their roaming fleets of photogrammetry vehicles.
I did this a while back, but used Google Earth instead. The screen recording technique is way better! My issue with it, though, is that you can't edit it. Typically we work on a site that has an existing building to be demolished. Is there a way to do that in Revit 2020+?
Correct, this is for USING the site context that wont change. Any area that is being modified I will model in Revit and cut out the hole of the mesh from the recap file.
I'm just getting back into revit for a personal project after 10+ years out. Its amazing how far things have come, got all the steps down but couldn't import the point cloud because I'm using LT. Is there is any work around? Thanks
Revit LT has limited functionality (that is why it is less expensive)/ Unfortunately, Autodesk chooses what functions you get and don't get.... And linking files and point clouds is one of them! The only workaround is using full blown Revit! Sorry!
very nice tutorial Jeff but I have bad news, I've tried this morning and unfortunately that Recap Photo doesn't have the RCS format in the advanced export model, so I got stuck from there
it has all the rest of the export options but no the RCS (btw I already installed all the updates and stuff and nothing) need your help! thanks in advance
All you have to do if you don't have the RCS exporter is simply export to a PTS and then load that into ReCap pro. Once you save that file it is an RCS and you can load it into Revit. As for not having th export to RCS, you'll have to reach out to Autodesk for that, I don't know why I have it and you don't. Maybe try updating the desktop connector, too?
@@TheRevitKid Thanks for your quick response, let me try in that way and I'll let you know. (yes I have all the apps up to date, probably yes, I can reach out to Autodesk) Thanks

Hey, I'm in Ohio. I've been using Revit, 3ds Max and CAD for a few years now for my construction business. If you're interested, I could offer some help/advice with software, design, etc. in exchange for finance/funding advice in terms of new construction and rehabs.
Good video. So, if I use Metashape to render my drone video/photos, then I can export an OBJ or RCS that can be directly imported into Revit? I think this would be handy on expansion projects when a 3d model, or even drawings, of the existing structure (that you are adding onto) does not exist. Can these items from a point cloud be used in the drafting, appear on sheets/sections, etc in Revit?

@TheRevitKid Thanks, Firstly I cant understand how you can save screen and which you used software ? Secondly, If we have different resources photos such as drone or etc. How can we combine them because they have different lens angles etc. ?
I am generating OBJ files from Meshroom and I want to import them to Revit. However, there isn't a simple way to import detailed models. What can I do? I have attempted to convert to other file formats, such as DWG, but it doesn't load the UV maps. The only way is to convert the model to point clouds?
Question, your onky getting a small area and anything beyond is distorted. The main use for something like this is to get a large context model. So maybe you should zoom out, but since your recording at screen resolution the quality would probably be really low. Maybe you can export a few areas and combine them but not sure if that would work. What do you think? How would you export a large area without having low quality or distorted? Cheers
I've done some pretty large areas, but yes, quality is reduced. Depending on the size of the area and the desired output you may need a different approach. In my experience, ReCAP Photo doesn't do a great job stitching together multiple recordings of multiple areas...
Thank you! very useful tutorial try to make another export format for me when I use Agisoft,I make export in the format "e57" and the point cloud has shown normally in Revit ( With RGB Color)

Hi I have been watching your youtube for a while, is there a super stable way to import Context? right now i use packages from ELK to import Openstreetmap, but often in Toronto they are missing a lot of buildings. is there a way to convert a shape file or from the city or take advantage of google maps to create the context model in a much accurate way?
Thanks for this, very helpfull!! I was wondering if there´s any way to do the reverse, can I export my Revit model and place it on google earth? I have in mind that Cadtoearth was the way but can't find it anymore...
I have not done the reverse in a long time either... As long as you can figure out what export format Google Earth Pro Desktop wants... I am guessing its still possible! Sorry!
I'm actually looking forward to see you importing it to revit as a mesh with textures instead of point cloud. Do you have a workflow how to do it? Point cloud is not renderable in Revit.
Yeah I just wish there's an easy way of mapping textures on a detailed site topography. Even autodesk can't give a straight answer. We have subscription to Nearmap3D and we can easily download 3D terrain with textures in fbx obj and point cloud but once in Revit the mesh loses the texture.
@@JamesFabian depending on your rendering product it’s not bad… I use this process to create mesh files for Twinmotion … I have a video do this on my channel
Ingenious to mimic the drone, thanks for the video. Since this post have you compared pix4d vs drone deploy? I suspect drone deploy is good enough I use Matterport for interior and take the Matterport camera outside but have to use it at dusk or dawn (which is annoying), because the UV rays create misalignment. I currently import the Matterport scan into revit and maybe will try to switch to using the drone for outside, so will have two scans in revit. Thanks again for the video. I wonder if I should try and fly the drone inside the house lol, just kidding. But the matterport camera is good for that of course.
I have not compared Drone Deploy to Pix4D yet... It has been mentioned a few times to me so I would love to give it a try. I currently have an enterprise license with Drone Deploy through my 9-5 job and get a lot of use out of it!
Really useful video. The only trouble for me is that the export options I have under "Advanced" don't include RCS! Any ideas? I have OBJ, FBX, STL, PLY and PTS.
In Recap? Check your version of recap and search Autodesk to determine which version has or doesn’t have RCS for recap photo… I don’t remember offf the top of my head but it’s a version thing
Could you use this to create a 3D deliverable with annotations to accompany a condition survey? If so, what program would you use to annotate the fbx file (or whichever format is best)
Of course! Once you have a textures mesh you can do whatever you want with it in whatever 3D program you’re comfortable with. Max, Twinmotion, Lumion, you name it.
@@TheRevitKid Thanks for the reply. Looking at doing something like this for the first time for a client, so not sure what the best way to go about it is yet!

There are ways in ReCap photo to set benchmarks (I believe). If not, you could always bring it into ReCap pro and treat it like a laser scan... I don't think you can do it BEFORE they process the images into a mesh... So, it may be a bit of back and forth.

Any thoughts on copyright infringement when presenting Google data. I'm believe they're quite hardline with their rules on using and editing their data for commercial uses.
Maybe Google should consider selling this service to Architects and designers out there? Sketchup no longer belongs to google yet there is no licensed product that allows bringing the google model into Revit or Autocad Architecture.

I could be reached by phone, email, I prefer Skype, or other Video chatting tools?.
Have to go to work
IS THERE AN UPDATED VERSION OF THIS?
There should honestly be a plugin to do all of this, maybe even AI accelerated!
I agree... so much! haha
Can’t you just use an older version of recap photo?
Yup, I guess you could!
great but how do you record the gmaps ?
I show you in the first part of the video... 01:19 Record your "flight" in Google Maps
Any thoughts on copyright infringement when presenting Google data. I'm believe they're quite hardline with their rules on using and editing their data for commercial uses.
🤷🏻♂️
Maybe Google should consider selling this service to Architects and designers out there? Sketchup no longer belongs to google yet there is no licensed product that allows bringing the google model into Revit or Autocad Architecture.
Shift + Left Click wont work.
Subscription, wink, wink.

Hitting Shift+LeftClick does nothing for me, Why?
Shift Right click you mean?
