Leica BLK360 review: evaluate the capture workflow
Evaluate the Leica BLK360 through site access, coverage, processing and handover requirements, with Novo’s published KLCC capture as project context.
A useful Leica BLK360 review should consider the scanner generation, site conditions, processing workflow and required output. Novo’s KLCC record identifies BLK360 capture, providing a real project reference. It is not a controlled comparison or an accuracy certificate for another job.
Check the exact model and workflow
Confirm which BLK360 generation and software are being proposed before comparing published specifications. The field plan should cover access, scan positions, obstructions and review of coverage. Ask how the team will identify missing areas while a revisit is still practical. A scanner’s specification is only one part of a delivered dataset’s suitability.
Evaluate the output you will receive
Review a sample in the receiving team’s software and agree registration checks, coordinates, formats and any modelling scope. A navigable tour, registered point cloud and BIM model are separate outputs. Include processing, licences, training and future access in the comparison. Use project-specific acceptance criteria instead of converting a manufacturer’s device specification into an unverified promise about every delivered measurement.
What to include in your project brief
- Identify the scanner generation and software.
- Assess coverage and access conditions.
- Agree registration and verification requirements.
- Separate capture from modelling scope.
- Review sample files, licences and handover.

Questions before you commission
Are all BLK360 specifications interchangeable?
No. Identify the exact generation and configuration, then consult its current manufacturer documentation and the proposed workflow.
Does BLK360 capture automatically include a BIM model?
No. Model production, information requirements and checking need an explicitly commissioned scope.
