Several years ago, Trimble put collaboration and data integration at the heart of its innovation strategy, with a focus on ...

British mine-clearance charity The HALO Trust partnered with Routescene to undertake a UAV Lidar project in Cuito Cuanavale, in the Angolan province of Cuando Cubango. This case study demonstrates the ...

A leading Italian engineering firm took on a pioneering surveying endeavour: to map the iconic St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. Commissioned to create a digital twin of the revered structure, the ...

UAVs with a higher level of autonomy can make civil engineering inspections safer, faster and more accurate, plus they support the monitoring of infrastructural changes over time. The increasing ...

A total station is an angle measuring device, also known as a theodolite, integrated with an electronic distance measurement (EDM) unit. The integration provides the ability to measure horizontal and ...

The German Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy (BKG) is creating a digital twin of the whole of Germany that can be used to simulate various future scenarios in order to adequately address ...

The use of 3D laser scanners is expanding the role of geospatial technology in criminal investigations. The technology is being used to produce accurate, feature-rich visualizations of crime scenes ...

The acquisition of accurate dense 3D point clouds in urban areas has long been based on airborne Lidar. The collection of Lidar data requires expensive hardware but, thanks to the rapid evolution of ...

Clustering algorithms allow data to be partitioned into subgroups, or clusters, in an unsupervised manner. Intuitively, these segments group similar observations together. Clustering algorithms are ...

Table 3: Minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation of the Z coordinate. Both methods succeeded in accurately capturing the structure. The Lidar output took far less time to capture and process and ...

Did you know that surveyors have been indispensable to the development of the world since civilization began? John F. Brock takes us on a brief journey through the history of surveying. In today’s ...
