Hello everyone,
I have no idea which section to post this. Please redirect my post if it's not at the right place.
I wanted to share an idea I've been thinking for years now and I wonder if you guys would agree with this or not.
We all know that having the «real« height of a building is somewhat a tough thing to get (besides the original drawings and planning of the building, things can change while building the building). Every website has different heights for the same buildings and it's quite hard to know exactly the real height.
Here's the idea. How many times did we see different individuals climbing buildings illegally, in various cities and countries, all around the world? We saw that many times. How about hiring those people and ask them to provide us with heights? Could be a 6-month contract for example.
We could ask that person to climb each building, have the tools to calculate the height, and there you go, we could have the real height for all buildings after it's built. I'm pretty sure there's a lot of daredevils around the world that would do this and instead of being an «illegal« act, we could take advantage of this and take the opportunity to ask them to calculate heights. Architectural heights that is.
Anyone think it would be a good idea? If it has been discussed before, I'm sorry. I did some research, could not find anything.
Thanks guys
