An examination of currently available IT-tools shows insufficient support for planning within existing contexts, most notably a deficit with regard to information capture and administration. This paper discusses the concept for a modular surveying system (basic concept, separation of geometry from semantic data, and separation into sub-systems) and the prototypical realisation of a system for the complete support of the entire building surveying process for existing buildings. The project aims to contribute to the development of a planning system for existing buildings. ...}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WenderDonathPetzold2004, author = {Wender, Katrin and Donath, Dirk and Petzold, Frank}, title = {Preparation and provision of building information for planning within existing built contexts}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.182}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1829}, year = {2004}, abstract = {A prerequisite for planning within existing built contexts is precise information regarding the building substance, its construction and materials, possible damages and any modifications and additions that may have occurred during its lifetime. Using the information collected in a building survey the user should be able to "explore" the building in virtual form, as well as to assess the information contained with regard to a specific planning aspect. The functionality provided by an information module should cover several levels of information provision ranging from 'simple retrieval' of relevant information to the analysis and assessment of stored information with regard to particular question sets. Through the provision of basic functionality at an elementary level and the ability to extend this using plug-ins, the system concept of an open extendable system is upheld. Using this modular approach, different levels of information provision can be provided as required during the planning process.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PetzoldBartelsDonath2004, author = {Petzold, Frank and Bartels, Heiko and Donath, Dirk}, title = {New techniques in Building Surveying}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.180}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1803}, year = {2004}, abstract = {Building activities in the construction industry in Germany increasingly concentrate on building measures in or involving the existing built environment. Before planning can begin, buildings must be surveyed in whole or in part with the surveying of geometric data playing a dominant role. The geometric survey is typically undertaken using geodetic or photogrammetric measuring techniques and equipment that have been adapted for use in building surveying. Accordingly appropriate technical knowledge is required in order to be able to operate them as well as a considerable financial investment. Such equipment and surveying methods are usually adaptations from other disciplines. The paper discusses and presents approaches to developing "new" equipment for building surveying, devised with the needs of building surveying in mind - redesigns or new designs for surveying tools. The designs are the result of an inter-disciplinary project between the Faculty of Architecture and the Faculty of Product Design at the Bauhaus Universit{\"a}t Weimar.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThurowDonath2004, author = {Thurow, Torsten and Donath, Dirk}, title = {A vision of an adaptive geometry model for computer-assisted building surveying}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.172}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1722}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The paper describes a concept for the step-by-step computer-aided capture and representation of geometric building data in the context of planning-oriented building surveying. Selected aspects of the concept have been implemented and tested as prototypes. The process of step-by-step capture and representation is determined by the order in which the user experiences the building. Only the information that the user knows (can see) or can reasonably deduce is represented. In addition approaches to the flexible combination of different measuring techniques and geometric abstractions are described which are based upon geodetic computational adjustment.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DonathTonn2004, author = {Donath, Dirk and Tonn, Christian}, title = {Plausibility in Architectural Design - Software Support for the Architect-oriented Design of Colour Schemes for Interiors and Buildings}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.149}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1498}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The approach discussed here is part of research into an overall concept for digital instruments which support the entire planning process and help in enabling planning decisions to be based upon clear reasoning and plausible arguments. Such specialist systems must take into account currently available technology, such as networked working patterns, object-orientation, building and product models as well as the working method of the planner. The paper describes a plausibility instrument for the formulation of colour scheme proposals for building interiors and elevations. With the help of intuitively usable light simulations, colour, material and spatial concepts can be assessed realistically. The software prototype "Coloured Architecture" is conceived as a professional extension to conventional design tools for the modelling of buildings. As such it can be used by the architect in the earliest design phases of the planning process as well as for colour implementation on location.}, subject = {CAD / Architektur}, language = {en} }
