The European Directive 2014\/24\/EU imposes BIM Level 2 for government centrally procured projects as a collaborative process of producing federated discipline-specific models. Although BIM software resources are intensified and increasingly growing, distinct specifications for heritage (H-BIM) are essential to driving particular processes and tools to efficiency shifting from point clouds to meaningful information ready to be exchanged using non-proprietary formats, such as Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). This paper details a procedure for processing enriched 3D point clouds into the REVIT software package due to its worldwide popularity and how closely it integrates with the BIM concept. The procedure will be additionally supported by a tailored plug-in to make high-quality 3D digital survey datasets usable together with 2D imaging, enhancing the capability to depict contextualized important graphical data to properly planning conservation actions. As a practical example, a 2D\/3D enhanced combination is worked to accurately include into a BIM project, the length, orientation, and width of a big crack on the walls of the Castle of Torrelobat\u00f3n (Spain) as a representative heritage building.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13081584","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,19]],"date-time":"2021-04-19T11:21:38Z","timestamp":1618831298000},"page":"1584","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["BIM Supported Surveying and Imaging Combination for Heritage Conservation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8006-5773","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pedro","family":"Mart\u00edn-Lerones","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CARTIF Technological Center, Boecillo, 47151 Valladolid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Olmedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CARTIF Technological Center, Boecillo, 47151 Valladolid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"L\u00f3pez-Vidal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CARTIF Technological Center, Boecillo, 47151 Valladolid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4763-5356","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jaime","family":"G\u00f3mez-Garc\u00eda-Bermejo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ITAP-DISA, University of Valladolid, 47011 Valladolid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7283-5574","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eduardo","family":"Zalama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ITAP-DISA, University of Valladolid, 47011 Valladolid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Al Khalil, O.
