Overview
Laser scanning has also been used effectively in surveying and asset management of railway and highway structures. Our terrestrial range of instruments are ideal for filling in detail when used in conjunction with airborne laser surveys. The use of specialist software allows for a variety of presentations of the data, including visualisation, modelling, cross sections or direct measurements within the pointcloud data.
Suggested Scanners
The Riegl LMS-Z420i, Z390, Z210i and Z210ii are typically used for transport infrastructure applications.
Typical Projects
Typical projects include the provision of data for highways, railways and structures within those environments. The use of laser scanning technology has also proved invaluable in the rapid and comprehensive collection of data at the site of road or rail incidences.
