Building Survey

Solutions for Building Survey
Leica Geosystems' range of surveying systems - total stations, levels, GPS and the Leica DISTO - provide accuracy and efficiency in building survey applications.
Virtual 3D Urban Design from Laser Scan Data
The Inselhalle in Lindau, Germany, a conference center on an island in Lake Constance, was to be refurbished and extended to meet modern requirements. Since only incomplete records of the original building existed, project organizers decided to capture the existing features of this old conference hall and its surroundings using laser scanning. The acquired data is now available to architectural consultants for their designs and for virtual “tours”. more
3D Laser Scanning Reduces Risks
In construction, there’s a big premium on identifying and fixing potential field problems early – well before a crane is lowering something critical into place and the ugly discovery is made that things don’t fit or something’s in the way. Such problems can be especially costly on projects involving complex structures. For one contractor however, this type of risk has been sharply reduced thanks to Leica Geosystems High- Definition Surveying™ (HDS™) 3D laser scanners and software and the way the contractor takes advantage of them. In fact, Hoffman Construction, a US-based $1 billion/yr contractor, has been successfully minimizing project risks and achieving additional project benefits with HDS since 2003. more
Building dimensions
The indispensable daylight point finder with telescope, allows outdoor building measurements to be taken quickly and easily. more
Elevator dimensions
Elevator shafts are demanding areas within a building., especially when it involves measuring the dimensions. The areas being measured are not very easy to access and usually involve great heights and darkness. more
Facade measurement
Non-Contact Facade measurement. more
Tolerances and finishes
With the DISTO you can work alone, and yet twice as fast as compared with conventional procedures. more
Internal areas and volumes
Any structure size or shape can be measured with the LEICA DISTO. more
Ceiling heights
Such a task would typically be a problem measurement. Requiring time and resources. It can be now be completed within a fraction of the time and cost. more
Room dimensions
Corner measurements would typically be a problem for an ultrasound measurement device. more
