Surveys

Measured, not estimated.

Most renovations in Italy drift because they start from a drawing that was never accurate. A survey done properly at the beginning costs a fraction of what a wrong assumption costs later, and it gives every professional after me something reliable to work from.

Instruments

What is in the van

Which instrument goes on site depends on the building. A small town house does not need a drone; a ruined masseria in the middle of a field needs everything.

FARO 3D
Laser scanning to millimetre tolerance, indoors and out. Processed in FARO Scene.
DJI + Terra
Aerial survey for roofs, terrain and anything unreachable from the ground.
GNSS
Boundaries and land parcels tied to real coordinates, not to a hedge.
Photogrammetry
Metashape and CloudCompare for facades, detail and model comparison.
CAD / QGIS
Drawings and mapping your architect can design on, in open formats.
Deliverables

What comes out of a survey

01

Point cloud

The building measured as it is, millions of points, navigable. Every later drawing is derived from this and can be checked against it.

FormatE57, RCP
02

Orthophotos and elevations

Photographic elevations that are dimensionally correct, so a facade can be measured from the image itself and read alongside the line drawing.

FormatTIFF, PDF
03

CAD drawings

Plans, sections and elevations of the building as built, ready for the designer, the engineer and the permit application.

FormatDWG, DXF, PDF
04

Terrain and 3D model

Digital surface model and textured 3D model, for sites where levels, roofs and volumes matter as much as the plan.

FormatOBJ, GeoTIFF

The files are delivered to you in open formats and archived for ten years. They are yours: you can hand them to any designer, anywhere, without coming back to me.
