The Challenge of Digitizing Notre-Dame Basilica

Notre-Dame Basilica is a Gothic architectural icon in Montréal, renowned for its massive scale and intricate details. The digitization team faced numerous challenges:

  • Massive architecture with fine carvings that needed precise capture.

  • Busy central location, with crowds causing data interference.

  • Harsh winter conditions, making scanning operations more difficult.

👉 With traditional methods, digitizing the entire cathedral would be nearly impossible – too time-consuming and lacking precision.


The Solution – Artec Ray II Long-Range 3D Laser Scanner

To overcome these challenges, the team chose Artec Ray II, a next-generation long-range 3D laser scanner with outstanding capabilities:

  • High-speed scanning – Captures 2 million points per second, quickly covering the entire structure.

  • Exceptional accuracy – <1 mm error margin, ensuring precise reproduction of both large walls and delicate details.

  • Smart VIS Technology – Visual Inertial System (VIS) automatically aligns scans from multiple positions without manual adjustments.

  • Portable & convenient design – 8-hour battery, mobile app control, no laptop required on-site.

  • Dynamic object filtering – Removes moving people from the scene, keeping data clean.


The Result – Notre-Dame Digitized in Hours
