The measurement technique as the surveys can be understood we get the following categories:

• result by cutting a construction drawing a horizontal plane at a height of 1.20 meters above floor level covered (basement, ground floor, mezzanine floor, mansard, attic);
• result by cutting a construction drawing a vertical direction after prestablită (synonym with SECTION);
• figuration result by drawing all the elements that define the frame, goals and decoration of facades (Principal, side or rear) of a building (synonym facade);
• figuration result by drawing all the elements that define the frame, voids any inflection lines (breaking) that characterizes the rear exterior wall construction (with a limited number of openings) which in most cases of a building is intended to be covered by wall of a similar neighboring buildings (synonymous with CALCAN).

Cases for the recourse to the achievement of reports building:

• technical documentation and cadastral registration in the Land Registry;
• achieving the set of data and information that characterizes the building in terms of quantity (area, volume), quality (indoor uses, training aids, state buildings) and legal (belonging to a particular owner);
• restructuring of existing spaces (repair, expansion, modernization, consolidation, etc.).

Measurement of reports is performed using laser measurement technology being faster and more accurate, successfully replacing with success hard meassurements and often requiring two people, or going through rough terrain.
