Scanned Architectural PDF to Editable CAD (DWG) Drafting
Pain Points (Public)
Architects and project managers frequently encounter legacy plans stored solely as rasterized or scanned PDFs that cannot be manipulated in modern CAD workflows. Manually vectorizing these sheets while calibrating true-to-scale geometry, configuring standard layer structures, and implementing detailed revision briefs requires tedious manual drafting and carries a high risk of dimension discrepancies.
Suggested Approach (Public)
Provide precision 2D drafting to convert raster architectural sheets into clean, fully layered DWG files. The service involves exact line-by-line tracing to scale, organizing geometry into standardized layers (annotations, structural outlines, mechanical equipment), and systematically applying customer revision markups and specifications.

Opportunity assessment PRO
Development brief PRO
- Position as a specialized architectural PDF-to-DWG vectorization pre-processor specifically targeting roof plans (e.g., sheet A103) that isolates raster geometry, slope indicators, and roof penetrations before CAD export.
- Build a raster PDF ingestion and scale calibration module that allows users to upload scanned architectural sheets (like sheet A103) and define reference linear dimensions.
