Site Dim
Features
Everything you need to survey a job site
The iPhone or iPad’s camera, used to capture, calculate and export your surveys — without leaving the app. Works on any iPhone; a LiDAR sensor, when present, unlocks the LiDAR Scan mode.
What you can measure
Six survey types, one device
Walls
Each wall’s area calculated automatically, openings included.
Floors
Floor area of a room, even an irregularly shaped one.
Ceilings
Ceiling survey captured in the same pass as the walls.
Roofs
Roof surface measured safely, without walking the entire roof.
Lengths
Baseboards, mouldings and other linear elements measured in one stroke.
Lots
Lot area with excavation and backfill calculations.
Concrete calculator
Concrete volume calculated from your surveys, with a detailed order sheet ready to send to your supplier.
Capture
5 modes matched to the real shape of the space
LiDAR Scan
Walk around a room with the camera: walls, floor, and ceiling are detected automatically in a single pass, ready to be added to your surveys.
Rectangle
For right-angled rooms and surfaces — the fastest mode.
Circle
For circular surfaces, columns and rounded elements.
Half-moon
For semi-circular surfaces and composite shapes.
Full trace
To capture any irregular shape, point by point.
Automatic corner squaring
Every corner captured is squared automatically, no manual adjustment needed.
Excavation & backfill
On a lot survey, calculate up to 3 distinct backfills.
What sets SITE DIM apart
Built by an estimator, not just by developers
Most augmented reality survey apps target real estate, insurance or inspection. SITE DIM is built differently: on 25 years of estimating and construction experience in Quebec, for what a real job site actually needs.
Excavation & backfill
Volume calculations for up to 3 distinct backfills on a lot survey — a feature absent from generic room-scanning apps.
Roofs, measured safely
Roof surface measured directly from the ground or a safe vantage point, without having to walk the entire roof.
Dual unit system
Metric and imperial displayed simultaneously — built for the bilingual Canadian market, not bolted on afterward.
How it works
From job site to deliverable, in three steps
Capture
Point the camera, choose a capture mode and trace the outline of the space to measure.
Review
SITE DIM instantly calculates distances, areas and volumes, in both metric and imperial.
Export
Generate a full-page PDF or a vector DXF file ready for AutoCAD.
New
Concrete calculator and order sheet
Turn a survey into an order ready to send to your concrete supplier — no manual volume recalculation.
Element type
Slab on grade, structural slab, foundation wall or footing — each with its own default specifications.
Technical specifications
Strength (MPa at 28 days), water/binder ratio, air content, slump and maximum aggregate size — adjustable per project.
Admixtures
Water reducer, accelerator, retarder, superplasticizer, fiber or coloring, as the job requires.
Volume is calculated automatically from the surveyed area and the specified thickness, for each element. The final order sheet includes the delivery truck type and all technical specifications — ready to send directly to the batching plant.
PDF export
Full page, ready to share
A clear document with every dimension surveyed, generated in one tap — for a client, subcontractor or supplier.
DXF export
Vector, AutoCAD compatible
Surveys captured on site become directly usable in technical drawings.
Units
Metric and imperial together
Both systems displayed at once, no toggling or manual conversion.
Language
Fully bilingual
Interface and exports available in French and English.
