Some methods of measurement might include:

Photos
Distometer (laser measuring device)
Tape measure
Sound Recorder
iphone applications
Existing records of measurements (floor plans)
Reports

To really uncover all elements of the Town Hall, a combination of the above should be used. I would say that documenting the feel of being in the station is the most difficult. That dirty, grimy feeling of standing in there for even 5 minutes; the caustraphic feeling, when you are surrounded by a million and one people trying to go home; the diversity of the people that come from all area of Sydney.

The distometre will be used to measure up the perimetre and basic shape of the Town Hall and as many elements as possible. It is hard to accept that it is not going to be perfectly accurate and things may not line up so well when it comes to modelling it in SolidWorks.

I think taking pictures to remind me of the position of the elements in the staion would be helpful, also to capture images that will be used as textures and applied in 3dsMax. It will also assist in positioning textures on the final model.
