From our own experience in the construction field, we know that a huge amount of data needs to be collected and organized for quantity surveys and photo documentations of construction sites. In order to optimize our own workflow we have developed Plaans - a practical assistant for the daily use to support us handling the following, frequently recurring tasks: "Where should i put the camera, the various pens, the drawing board, the measuring laser, flashlight and the piles of building plans?" Plaans offers basic functions for recording quantity surveys directly on digital construction plans. This helps you keeping your hands free. *** "Where did I take this photo? In what direction did i look?" Take pictures and locate them on your floor plans - including the viewing direction. Place audio and text comments right where they need to be. *** "Lots of pictures, plans and comments. How do I get this organized?"
