About Us


Documenta is a well-established company committed to providing the highest quality in "as-found" documentation and accurate measurement surveys for architecture, engineering, planning, and archaeological applications.

The company partners, architects and engineers, with international experience on multi-disciplinary projects and teams, ensure that surveys and documentation meet exacting architectural and engineering standards, for a variety of applications.


Peter Borges, B. Eng., founder of the company, has 20 years of experience with "as-found" recording with a variety of processes (stereo-photogrammetry, multi-image photogrammetry, laser scanning, and others). Through restoration and renovation works with his own construction firm, he pioneered the utilization of photogrammetric measurements for his restoration projects. Later, innovating with CAD/GIS interfaced digital close-range photogrammetry, he created a wide range of new applications and a new level of precision and cost effectiveness for professionally executed "as-found" surveys.   

Maria Lucia V. Baptista, Architect, and co-founder of Documenta. Her first degree was in architecture and town planning. Later she specialized in architectural photogrammetry at the Institute for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing at Karlsruhe University, Germany. She also worked for a number of years as an architect and planner in firms specialized in (historic) restoration and revitalization projects - her expertise is key to the usefulness of our architectural documentations.   

Their success is the result of theoretical and hands-on experience in related disciplines. They are acknowledged experts in the specialized field of "spatial data collection". - Their ability to interpret and acquire information relevant to revitalization, restoration, historical documentation, building surveys, and urban planning is what makes their work so successful. - They strive to provide precise, accurate and useful "as-found" information to professional clients, architects, engineers, and planners, as efficiently and economically as possible.
