Asset management and digital estates
Our asset management and digital estates service gives you a clearer, more connected view of your buildings, sites and infrastructure, helping you understand what you have, where it is, what condition it’s in and how best to manage it.
Why choose IG Surveys?
Good estate management depends on reliable information. At IG Surveys, we combine survey accuracy with practical digital outputs, helping clients turn buildings, sites and infrastructure into clear, usable information that supports day-to-day management and long-term planning.
We understand that every estate is different. Some clients need a full digital twin, while others need an improved asset register, updated floor plans, condition information or a more accessible way to view building documentation. Our approach is flexible, allowing us to build a solution around the way your team already works.
By bringing survey data, asset information, drawings, imagery and documentation together, we help reduce uncertainty and improve access to the information that matters. Your team can view spaces remotely, check room data, locate assets, review maintenance records, access compliance information and make more informed decisions about the buildings you manage.
Whether you’re looking to create a digital record of an existing estate, improve the quality of your asset data or develop a more interactive way to manage building information, our team will help you capture and structure the right information from the start.

-
Yes. We can review and build on your existing drawings, asset lists, BIM models, maintenance records or facilities management information, then fill in the gaps with accurate survey data where needed.
-
The best method depends on the site and the information required. We can use 3D laser scanning, measured building surveys, drone surveys, photography, 360° capture and other survey techniques to create a complete and reliable digital record.
-
We can tailor deliverables to suit your workflow, including CAD drawings, PDF plans, point clouds, 3D models, BIM-ready files, spreadsheets, asset schedules and visual digital environments.
-
Yes. Our approach can be scaled to suit anything from a single building to a multi-site estate. We’ll agree the level of detail, priorities and delivery format before work begins, so the final output is practical and cost-effective.

-
Yes. Building documentation, maintenance records, compliance information and other important records can be linked within the digital platform, helping your team keep key information organised and easier to access.
-
Yes. Drone imagery and aerial models can be included where useful, particularly for larger sites, roof areas, external assets, infrastructure, land, access routes and wider estate planning.
-
Yes. Point cloud data captured through 3D laser scanning can be integrated into the wider digital estate record, providing a highly accurate survey foundation for drawings, models, measurements and future project work.
-
Yes. Room names, room numbers, floor areas and other space information can be included within the digital estate platform, drawings or asset schedules, depending on how you need to use the data.
-
Yes. We can capture and structure asset information into clear registers or schedules. These can include asset locations, references, condition information, maintenance details and other data needed by your estates or facilities teams.
-
Yes. Condition survey data can be captured and added to the digital record, giving you a clearer understanding of building condition and helping support maintenance, refurbishment and investment planning.
