Laser Scanner Applications
The Imager 5003 will provide excellent models for as-built
survey applications when accuracy is not required. Industry
testing and results such as
Boehler's and
Schulz's show that accuracies not better than 3mm are expected
and can often be as large as 1cm. Presently AEG personnel are
learning to efficiently scan and process the immense amount
of data generated by a scan.

Issues to be resolved:
- type of targets used in scans (hardware and software
issues related to scan density, target recognition, and
integration into regular survey networks for both Z+F and
Leica);
1.5" Spherical

- choice of resolution for scanning (all scans at super
high resolution would be way too large in many cases but
high resolution regions will be necessary in other situations);
- number of set-ups and the associated geometry;
- modelling the raw data for CAD and doing so in a timely
manner;
- archiving and retrieving data.
