Abstract
Abstract Information-based modeling technology is supported by advanced information technology solutions in the building industry. The integration of its methodology into construction and design processes is already going on. However, many areas still have development possibilities; for instance, building surveys belong to these fields. Countless survey tools and methodologies endeavor to support and ease the work of professionals in design and construction, yet there is a need for comprehensive collaboration. This could be promoted by creating a direct link between survey tools and architectural design software. This article demonstrates a tool under development that intends to provide a solution to this issue.

In addition to traditional devices, innovative, professionally equipped tools that meet today’s needs are available. This group includes augmented reality applications that can be accessed through tablets and smartphones, laser rangefinders with wireless connectivity, which are capable of displaying 2D and 3D measurement results in their own software environments, and laser scanners that are used to produce spatial point clouds for the digital representation of reality [1]
Summary
Architectural surveys are essential elements of building processes. Traditional and modern devices help engineers’ work from the start of the design, throughout construction by monitoring measurements, up to renovation and operation processes. In addition to traditional devices, innovative, professionally equipped tools that meet today’s needs are available This group includes augmented reality applications that can be accessed through tablets and smartphones, laser rangefinders with wireless connectivity, which are capable of displaying 2D and 3D measurement results in their own software environments, and laser scanners that are used to produce spatial point clouds for the digital representation of reality [1]. Like in the case of traditional tools, many disadvantages are to be mentioned in this category as well Operating these devices requires high expertise, costly machines, mobile and computer software skills [6], high processing time [7], and in most of the cases above average IT hardware capacity
