Where people and animals used to live under one roof - today precise planning

Says, Graubünden. A traditional Maiensäss - living quarters and barn in a wooden building, secluded on a slope. A building typology that only exists in the Alps.

Stables have no insulation, no electricity, no water. And historic residential parts surprise with irregular geometries, grown structures and hardly any existing plans. Before planning can begin, the current situation must be fully known.

VDE recorded the entire property, including the terrain, using 3D laser scanning and created a detailed 3D model. An exact basis for architects and planners - right from the start, without the need for re-measurements on site.

The quality of the initial survey is crucial to the entire planning process, especially for remote properties.
