A manual building survey or facade survey takes a lot of time, which you can save with 3D laser scanning. In laser-based architectural surveying, between 10,000 and half a million measuring points per second can be recorded, depending on the measuring method used. This also means considerable time savings when a boundary survey is required. In addition, laser measurement delivers much more precise results than manual surveying, especially over very large distances. There are also various types of visualisation that can be derived from the point cloud generated by the laser scanners.

A topographic and boundary survey is the basis for modelling buildings as early as the planning phase, because in the Federal Republic of Germany strict statutory regulations on boundary setback distances must be observed. 3D building surveying also supports you in fulfilling documentation obligations, for example for entering buildings in cadastral maps.
Anyone who wants to harness the potential of renewable energy on an existing building benefits from the opportunity to obtain an accurate facade survey through 3D laser scanning in Hannover. This allows the size and arrangement of solar thermal and photovoltaic modules to be planned very precisely. In addition, supplementary 3D laser scanning enables a reliable calculation of the achievable output, because the visualisations can also take into account shadows cast by trees and neighbouring buildings.
If required, we also couple our 3D laser scanners and photogrammetry cameras with drones, so that survey flights and scanning are possible even where overflights by helicopter or zeppelin are out of the question. Moreover, 3D laser scanning in Hannover with drones is considerably more cost-effective than with other means.
Architectural surveying with 3D laser in the interest of safety
Most of the city of Hannover lies on sandy and boggy ground. Here it is particularly important to check the structural stability of taller buildings and bridges regularly. 3D laser scanning in Hannover also proves its worth here. Laser-based architectural surveying can detect even the smallest changes in alignment as well as subsidence, so that countermeasures can be initiated. This serves the safety of users and the long-term preservation of the building fabric.
Our surveying, modelling and visualisation services are also of interest to public authorities. The focus here is on monitoring and expanding existing infrastructure. With 3D laser scanning in Hannover, entire districts can be mapped together with their complete stock of buildings and trees. This allows urban planners to see at a glance where new roundabouts and stops, road widening or additional cycle lanes are possible.
Photogrammetry and 3D surveying of buildings and terrain surfaces also provide important information for managing the flood risks posed by the River Leine. From this, the locations of necessary flood embankments can be derived, as can the opportunities for establishing natural floodplains.
Do you need a building survey or 3D laser scanning of the Earth’s surface? Then you have come to the right place – just as you have if you require three-dimensional component surveying to replicate spare parts in reverse engineering!
