Abstract:
3D Laser Scanning promises to revolutionize the way existing conditions are measured. Utilizing LiDAR technology, scanners take up to 2 million measurements per second! Owners, inspectors, and construction managers are using laser scanning to evaluate the quality of your work. Is this technology as accurate as the manufacturers claim? Is it really accurate enough to evaluate tolerances of installed work? This talk will discuss a recent study, hosted by ASCC, where 3D laser scanning technology was put to the test. Results of the test will be shared, along with a comparison of real work laser scanning accuracy.
