Measured Surveys and BIM Models for Data Centers

Accurate floor plans, as-built drawings, and existing conditions Revit models for data centres, hyperscale facilities, and colocation buildings. Built for the operational realities of mission-critical environments: continuous uptime, high security, and zero tolerance for accidental disruption. Every project is run directly by Michael Kiernan, GeoMaus’s founder.

Typical projects: Existing data centres and hyperscale facilities. Single sites, regional networks, and global multi-site portfolios.

THE CHALLENGE

Upgrading Infrastructure in Live Mission-Critical Environments

Most mission-critical & hyperscale portfolios including data centers we’re called into have the same three problems. We document the building as it actually is today, so your team can plan the next move from facts, not assumptions.

Documenting active server halls without risking uptime

Data centers can’t shut down for a survey. Traditional methods are slow, intrusive, and risk accidental disruption to live equipment or cooling infrastructure.

Designing capacity expansions against fragmented records

Expansion, retrofit, and equipment upgrades are designed against legacy drawings that no longer reflect the current rack density, cooling routing, or structural capacity.

Coordinating across mission-critical, hyperscale, and colocation portfolios

Data centre portfolios often span multiple buildings, generations of facility design, and inconsistent documentation.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Drawings and Models Built Specifically for Data Centers

We deliver the documentation data centre engineering, capital, and facilities teams actually use. Accurate measured surveys of server halls, cooling infrastructure, electrical rooms, plant areas, and external site infrastructure. Existing conditions Revit models ready for capacity planning, infrastructure upgrades, and portfolio coordination.

Every drawing and model is built from verified 3D laser scan data, captured within your facility’s security and operational protocols. Whether you need a single facility documented or a multi-site portfolio brought to one standard, the deliverable is consistent. Michael personally signs off every drawing set before it leaves us.

OUR APPROACH

Built Around Live Server Halls, Not an Empty Building

Precision architectural and structural assets tailored directly for whitespace calculation, mechanical coordination, and lifecycle management.

01
We work within strict access and operational windows

Server halls and electrical rooms are scanned within scheduled maintenance windows or in coordination with your operations team. Capture routes are planned to avoid any interaction with live equipment.

02
We follow your facility’s security and access protocols

We follow your facility’s security and access protocols Data centres have access controls, escort requirements, and equipment restrictions. Our teams comply with your site security at every stage.

03
Non-invasive, contact-free capture
3D laser scanning is non-contact. No physical interaction with equipment, no airflow disruption, no risk to live infrastructure.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What Data Centre Teams Ask Before Commissioning a Survey

Everything you need to know about our data center surveying workflow, accuracy, and deliverables.

How do you guarantee your survey equipment won't interfere with live, sensitive server equipment?
3D laser scanning is non-contact and non-emitting. There’s no physical interaction with equipment, no airflow disruption, and no electromagnetic interference.
Our teams comply fully with your facility’s security and access protocols. Every team member is pre-cleared, security-inducted, and follows your access procedures.
Yes, where access permits. We coordinate with your facilities team to access raised floors and ceiling voids during scheduled maintenance windows.
Yes. Models and drawings are delivered in formats your downstream platforms consume.
Michael Kiernan, GeoMaus’s founder, runs every project personally. You’ll have his direct line from the first call. The fieldwork and modelling are delivered by our team, but the planning, the quality control, and any decision that affects your programme are owned by Michael.
