The TLS Method as an Element of the Building Management System

Abstract

3D terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is a modern measurement technique which enables to obtain a large amount of data in short time. The gathered data is very detailed, thus the scope of its use is vast. Therefore, scanners other measurement devices which results in considerable acceleration of stock-taking work. This approach enables to prepare a documentation of a building or to make an assessment of its technical condition using only a 3D cloud of points. Additionally, flexibility of data and advanced computer programmes make it possible to use such data in many sectors, not only in the building trade. The paper presents how to use the data obtained from 3D laser scanner measurements in the management of construction objects. The aim of the presented research was to develop a scheme of systemic approach to the management of used building objects.
