ReCap Project (.rcp)
A ReCap project is Autodesk's registered point cloud project format, packaging a scan (plus supporting files like .rcs and imagery) so it can be opened directly inside ReCap Pro, Revit, or AutoCAD.
We deliver the raw point cloud as a ReCap project on every project — it drops directly into Revit or AutoCAD as a measurement-accurate underlay, and pipe diameters are auto-recognized as intelligent objects for MEP work.
