3D Laser Scanning is a non-intrusive means of rapidly collecting detailed and accurate as-built data.  A 3D Laser Scanner emits a narrow laser beam that “sweeps across” a target object gathering millions of closely spaced measurements in a matter of minutes. These scanned measurements are collected and grouped into compressed point cloud databases that can be manipulated to display a dense representation of the object.  This data can be viewed, navigated and analyzed much like a 3D model created in a traditional CAD system. There are two different types of scanners that are commonly used in...
