Orthographic Imagery Facade Elevation Surveys

Practical Geo Scan guidance on Orthographic Imagery Facade Elevation Surveys for architects, developers and project teams.

What Orthographic Imagery covers

An orthophoto is a geometrically corrected image where the perspective is removed, making the scale uniform across the entire image. It is generated from photogrammetry or laser scan data and allows architects to trace intricate details directly over the image in CAD.

Why it matters

For façade refurbishment, stone repair, or condition surveys, architects need to see the condition of the surface (staining, cracks) alongside the geometry. Orthographic imagery provides this context in a single, measurable file, reducing the need for lengthy site sketches.

How Geo Scan approaches the work

Commission façade and elevation surveys for measured exterior records. Where you need interpreted DWG and PDF drawings from our capture, explore Scan to CAD services. Coverage, image detail and drawing requirements are agreed around your intended use.
