Understanding 3D Laser Scanning: Applications and Benefits
3D laser scanning uses high-definition LIDAR (Light, Imaging, Detection and Ranging) technology to capture large volumes of highly detailed data over a short space of time. The laser scan captures millions of single points to form a precise point-cloud model of a structure. Here we discuss the benefits of 3D laser scanning across a range of different scenarios, from churches and schools to offices and industrial plants.
