# 9.3 Building Survey
The **Building Survey** sub-module is dedicated to maintaining information about field surveys conducted to identify and digitize both pre-existing and new buildings in the municipality via the Building Information Collection mobile application. This application captures the building footprint and stores it in the Building Survey list. Users can add the building footprints stored in this module by approving the building and adding the necessary attribute fields as explained in the Add Building section (refer to section 9.2.2 Add Building). A separate detailed user manual is also available for the **[Building Information Collection Mobile App User Manual](http://152.42.244.158/knowledge-product/books/building-information-collection-mobile-app-user-manual "Building Information Collection Mobile App User Manual")**.
