This paper discusses the current methods of Scan-to-BIM, a process which allows creating a digital representation of existing buildings for a planning methodology called Building Information Modeling (BIM). The study covers all stages of the process, from point cloud generation and pre-processing to BIM modeling and formatting. We review the work already done in this area both conventionally and with the addition of Artificial Intelligence approaches which have significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of the process. With a particular focus on Artificial Intelligence, we explore how these advanced technologies transform and optimize every step, offering innovative insights and significant improvements over conventional methods. Through this investigation, we aim to provide insights into the capabilities and constraints of the Scan-to-BIM workflow, and to shed light on academic advancements and industrial perspectives.
