01
Renovation of public buildings
Reliably document schools, administrative or cultural buildings before renovation and energy-efficient modernization.
3D laser scanning for municipalities, cities and public institutions
Digitally record municipal buildings and plan securely
We use 3D laser scanning to map schools, administrative buildings, fire stations, cultural and infrastructure buildings. You receive up-to-date inventory data for renovation, space management, tendering and long-term building operation.

Digital municipal inventory
What does digitizing existing inventory mean for municipalities?
Municipal inventory digitization transfers the actual condition of public buildings into a uniform, digitally usable data basis.
Many properties have been renovated over decades without all changes being reliably recorded in the existing plans. 3D laser scanning fully captures rooms, building structure, and visible technical installations. This allows building authorities, property management, specialist planners, and contractors to work with the same up-to-date data.
The decisive factor is the intended later use.Different information and levels of detail are required for renovation, space management, CAFM or BIM.
Typical starting situations
When up-to-date building data is crucial for municipalities
Whether it's renovation, conversion or property management – up-to-date building data provides a reliable basis for this.
02
Management of land and properties
Provide floor plans, usable areas and room structures for administration, occupancy and portfolio decisions.
03
Accessibility and fire protection
Document development, escape routes, openings and relevant existing conditions for specialist planning.
04
Missing documents regarding the inventory
Replace outdated, incomplete, or contradictory plans with current digital data.
Spatial inventory of public buildings, areas of use and visible technical installations
Scope of recording
What information is collected for municipal projects?
Scan areas, accuracy and output are defined to suit the property and the specific administrative or planning task.
- Rooms, corridors and access areas
- Walls, supports, ceilings and openings
- Stairs, elevators and barrier-free access
- Visible building services and technical installations
- Facades, roofs and building edges
- Outdoor areas, driveways and entrances
- Floor heights and reference systems
- Agreed area and space information
Results
Inventory data for planning, administration and building operation
The data formats are coordinated with the building authority, property management, specialist planning or CAFM managers before the project begins.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about the digitization of municipal buildings
Which municipal buildings can be recorded?
Suitable buildings include schools, town halls, administrative buildings, fire stations, cultural buildings, sports facilities and technical infrastructure buildings.
Can the recording take place during ongoing operations?
Yes. Recording times, access points and sensitive areas are planned in such a way as to minimize disruption to administration, teaching or public operations.
What data does the municipality receive?
Depending on the task, we deliver registered point clouds, 2D plans, area analyses, and CAD or BIM models in agreed-upon formats.
Is the data suitable for CAFM systems?
Model structure, attributes and exchange formats can be adapted to the existing or planned CAFM system.
How are data protection and sensitive areas taken into account?
Access rights, areas not to be included, data transfer and confidentiality are agreed upon bindingly before the start of the project.
How is the project scope calculated?
Key factors include building type, area, accessibility, desired accuracy, output data and organizational framework.
Project request
Which municipal property would you like to digitize?
Describe the building, its use, the project goal, and the required documents. A project manager will review your information and contact you personally.
This information helps us with our initial assessment:
- Planning objective and relevant recording areas
- Project location with full property address
- Gross floor area (GFA) including all levels
- Desired recording of outdoor areas, indoor areas, or both areas
- Required scope of services: Architecture and/or building services engineering (MEP)
- Desired output formats: point cloud, CAD plans or BIM model
- Proposed timeframe and existing inventory documents
