Based on our philosophy of employment of latest technology to improve quality and efficiency, LandScope has developed a 3D laser scanning capability. As with all survey instrumentation, the critical success factor is a thorough understanding of application, economy of accuracy and quality of deliverable. LandScope has identified several areas where 3D laser scanning has greatly increased our capability and efficiency.
Without the need to create detailed time consuming and expensive 3D CAD models, the surveyor or end-user has the capability to extract vector distances, create 2D plans or elevations or cross sections directly from the measurement domain, which in this case is a point cloud.
With scan rates of up to 50000 points per second, field acquisition times are greatly reduced and the inevitable redundancy of data aspect provides an additional level of quality control, not possible with traditional survey instrumentation.
Applications for 3D laser scanning services include:
