Every RTC solution includes Leica Cyclone FIELD 360 for on-site capture, Hexagon GeoCloud for Livelink cloud collaboration, and Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS for processing and finalising scan data in the office.

Yes. Leica RTC point clouds can be exported to formats such as LGSx, E57, RCP, LAS, and PTS for direct use in AutoCAD, Revit, and other BIM platforms.

Leica RTC scanners capture high-resolution, colourised point clouds that form the basis for as-built drawings, BIM models, digital twins, 2D plans, sections, and 3D visualisations.

Yes. The RTC Series uses Visual Inertial System (VIS) technology to pre-register scans in the field, with final refinement completed in Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS.

Livelink enables real-time field-to-office connectivity by synchronising scan data to the cloud during capture, allowing teams to monitor progress, validate coverage, and collaborate more effectively.

Depending on the model, RTC scanners capture up to 2 million points per second, with HDR imaging completed in as little as 30 seconds.

VIS (Visual Inertial System) is a video-enhanced inertial measurement system that tracks the scanner’s movement between setups, enabling automatic scan alignment and simplified workflows.

Targets are not required for most workflows, as VIS enables automatic pre-registration, but they can be used when control or verification is required.

The RTC Series offers up to 85 metres (RTC300), 130 metres (RTC500), and 270 metres (RTC700), allowing users to select the right level of performance for their projects.

Yes. With Livelink and Hexagon GeoCloud, multiple users can collaborate on the same project in real time across field and office teams.

RTC scanners are used across surveying, construction, BIM, infrastructure, industrial plants, and public safety for fast and accurate reality capture.

Yes. The RTC Series is built for real-world conditions with robust construction and reliable performance across a wide range of environments.

Field teams focus purely on fast, continuous data capture, collaborating in real time with no redundant and no missed areas.
Real‑time visibility of the dataset in the cloud ensures full confidence before leaving the site - you walk off knowing everything has been captured, with no costly rework and no return trips
Project leads and specialists monitor progress remotely, validate results, and guide decisions while acquisition is still ongoing
Issues are identified and resolved during acquisition, not days later in the office

The Leica RTC solution converts reality capture into immediate, usable deliverables, eliminating delays between acquisition and action.

Instant Office Deliverables:
Download FAF files with LWPO data via Field360 while scanning is in progress. Office teams can perform progress monitoring on the construction site and begin Scan-to-Model (up to LOD300) with immediate site visibility, without waiting for field operations to conclude.

From Instant Feedback to Full Analysis:
Upload the full FAF dataset each time is needed to enable the office to perform comprehensive analysis and measurements, execute QA/QC, and support detailed scan to model, reporting, and compliance workflows.

Instant Field Deliverables:
Perform immediate Quick plan and FF/FL analysis on-site for construction tasks requiring instant validation.

The new Leica RTC is designed to remove complexity from the field through a high level of automation and an intuitive user experience.

Built‑in intelligence including VIS, IMU‑based sensors and automatic self‑calibration, handles alignment, orientation and accuracy checks without manual intervention
Simple, guided workflows allow data capture to be performed reliably by non‑specialist field operators, with minimal training required.
Skilled professionals can remain in the office, remotely coordinating operations, validating results, and working on higher‑value analytical and decision‑making tasks
The result is better resource utilisation, faster turnaround times, and increased project scalability

- Start with a lower‑cost model
- Scale performance on demand
- Protect investment, avoid new hardware CAPEX
- Align spend with project demand → pay for performance only when it delivers value
