    Hi @natan_mintz

      Onshape is able to import files of different formats. You can find a list here : https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/translation.htm. Have your scanner export the scan data into any one of the supported formats and you can then upload it to Onshape.

    Natan - Onshape absolutely can import scan data and use it as a reference (snap-to, measure etc). Onshape has zero tools for manipulating a mesh. I do not know what you mean by 'refine', but if it involves changing the mesh in any way, it cannot be done in Onshape (as of 1.66)
