Diriyah Development

Capturing Historic Building Geometry

YAZ’s scanning work focused on documenting accessible building elements within the agreed survey areas, recording their form, dimensions and spatial relationships.

This approach provides a measurable record of existing conditions, helping project teams understand the relationship between walls, openings, façades and internal spaces wherever captured.

Supporting Restoration and Rehabilitation Planning

Existing-conditions documentation provides an important reference when planning work on historic buildings. Laser scan data can support the review of available drawings, assessment of building geometry and coordination of proposed interventions with existing fabric.

The captured information can also serve as a reference for producing plans, elevations, sections and other technical documentation, according to the agreed downstream scope.

A Digital Record of Existing Conditions

A point cloud preserves the geometry visible at the time of scanning. It enables project teams to revisit captured areas digitally, extract additional measurements and review spatial details without relying solely on photographs or isolated site measurements.

YAZ’s involvement in Diriyah demonstrates its experience applying 3D laser scanning to heritage environments, extending its reality capture capabilities beyond modern construction to the documentation of historic buildings.

Heritage Surveying and Reality Capture Services

YAZ provides 3D laser scanning and existing-conditions documentation for historic buildings, renovation projects and complex architectural environments. Survey coverage, required detail, control requirements and deliverables are defined to suit each project.
