## A measurement report to the Meetinstructie. From one scan.

Walk through the home with a LiDAR iPhone or iPad. weScan delivers floor plans, a measurement report to the Meetinstructie gebruiksoppervlakte woningen (July 2019) and, for EP-advisers, the geometry for the energy label. In your own house style, and always checked by a person.

## The rules behind your number.

Homes are measured to the industry-wide Meetinstructie. It departs from NEN 2580 on two points, on purpose; where the instruction is silent, the standard applies.

### Meetinstructie gebruiksoppervlakte woningen

Homes · sale, rental, valuation

Measure inside the outer walls, including load-bearing and non-load-bearing interior walls. Listings split the figure into four: GO wonen (usable living area), “overige inpandige ruimte” (other indoor space), “externe bergruimte” (external storage) and “gebouwgebonden buitenruimte” (attached outdoor space).

- July 2019 version
- Also used for BAG and WOZ

### NEN 2580

The standard underneath · commercial (BOG)

Applies where the instruction is silent, and to commercial property: BVO, VVO and GO per unit. The standard leaves load-bearing interior walls out of the area.

- Basis in the Bbl and BAG
- Measurement report per NTA 2581

### Usable floor area for energy performance

Energy label · NTA 8800

The usable floor area of the thermal zone is measured to the same Meetinstructie. We deliver calculation zones, facades, roofs, floors and pipe lengths as an export for the calculation software.

- Only an EP-adviser issues the label
- Export: Uniec 3 · Vabi

### Woningwaarderingsstelsel

Rent · WWS

Rent points follow other rules: rooms are measured net, wall to wall, at 1,50 m above the floor. We deliver both figures from the same scan.

- Wet betaalbare huur since 1 July 2024
- Mid-rent: 144–186 points

## Six rules that change the figure.

### Lower does not count

Floor with less than 1,5 m clear height is outside the usable area, except under a stair.

1,5 m (clear height)

### Deducted only from 4 m²

A stairwell, void or combination of both is deducted only if together they measure 4,0 m² or more.

4,0 m² (stairwell or void)

### Other indoor space

If the highest point of a space is between 1,5 and 2,0 m, it is not GO wonen but “overige inpandige ruimte”.

1,5–2,0 (highest point (m))

### Small things count too

A service shaft, recessed building part or free-standing structure of 0,5 m² or more is deducted.

0,5 m² (shaft or column)

### Unlike NEN 2580

The instruction includes load-bearing interior walls; NEN 2580 leaves them out. The report states which rule applies.

incl. (interior walls)

### No single total

GO wonen, other indoor space, external storage and attached outdoor space stay separate.

## The label starts with geometry.

An energy label is only as good as the areas behind it. weScan hands EP-advisers the calculation zones, facades, roofs, floors and pipe lengths from the scan. Nobody has to recheck areas by hand.

- **Overview**
- **Walls per facade**
- **Elevations**
- **Roofs**
- **Floors**
- **Pipe lengths**

- **NTA 8800 input for Vabi and Uniec 3**: Live · Netherlands: The adviser marks calculation zones and insulation while scanning; we deliver areas, orientations and constructions ready for the attested calculation software. 41,000 energy projects delivered in 2025–26. You issue the label yourself.
- **WWS areas**: Live · Netherlands: Rooms measured net at 1,50 m height, wall to wall, next to the measurement report from the same scan.

## Rules move. Reports follow.

### The energy label has been renewed

New design and new obligations from EPBD IV: a label is now also required for listed buildings, for a major renovation (25 % or more of the dwelling) and when a rental contract is extended. Ads show the label class and the energy performance in kWh per m² of usable floor area.

### NTA 2581 is being revised, with a focus on scanning

NEN is revising the guideline for measurement reports to NEN 2580; the announcement (13 Jan 2025) names digital scanning and measuring techniques as a focus. On 22 Oct 2026 no new version was on nen.nl yet. We follow the revision.
