3D Laser scanning for surveying applications is a reliable method to quickly gather detailed information of objects such as buildings, infrastructure and industrial facilities. With laser scanners, three-dimensional coordinates are measured from a distance at a rate of up to 1.000.000 points/second. They scan the surface of objects automatically, systematically and at high speed up to a distance of 250 m. The measured points are later processed into an accurate 3D point cloud of millions of points that displays the scanned area and serves as basis for the preparation of 2D plans, 3D models, visualizations and simulations. Simultaneously collected 360° photos can be used to improve the visualization and to colorize the points.

	How does 3D laser scanning work? 3D Laser scanning is a method of measurement in which an object or surface is scanned. Each point of the scan will be converted to a pixel with a known x-, y-, z-and reflectance value (intensity). The result is a point cloud of millions of points. Read more
	Why choose for 3D laser scanning? 3D Laser scanning is a safe method to gather quickly reliable detailed information of objects such as buildings, infrastructure and industrial facilities. For various reasons the demand for 3D laser scanning is increasing. Read more
	Who executes 3D laser scanning? For a reliable and accurate result it is important that the 3D laser scanning is being carried out by people with a thorough surveying knowledge. Read more
