Chow & Tell: An Introduction to 3D Laser Scanning and its Application

Joins BHC RHODES for this informative presentation on 3D Laser Scanning.

3D Laser Scanning is a survey technology that facilitates the rapid collection of 3D geometric data of a surveyed scene. Utilizing reflectorless laser technology, millions of points can be rapidly surveyed at ranges approaching 300 meters. This presentation will introduce the technology to attendees and provide a background that will enable better decision making about the usage of 3D laser scanning. In addition the application of 3D laser scanning to real world projects will be discussed.

Learning Objectives:

 What is 3D laser scanning?
 How accurate is 3D laser scanning?
 What advantages does 3D laser scanning provide over traditional methods?
 How can 3D laser scanning be used on real world projects?

This program is worth 1 HSW and lunch will be provided.
