I-Site 8800 Laser Scanner

  20/01/2010
Maptek has released the I-Site 8800. 'The extra-long range I-Site 8800 scanner has resulted from research and development, building on the company's experience with manufacturing laser scanners suited to the demanding mining environment,' said Maptek I-Site General Manager Peter Johnson.

 

Maptek I-8800 Laser scanner

 

The I-Site 8800 scanner has been designed from the ground up to take advantage of new technology and delivers advanced laser scanner technology for a scanner of this range, combining outstanding measurement accuracy with ease of use. The system maintains the efficient user interface, innovative design, and durability that our users have come to expect.

 

This survey instrument is to perform across a spectrum of applications, from close range detailed survey to long range topographic mapping. Stockpile volumes, pit surveys and mapping can be completed fast. 

 

The I-Site 8800 is alo designed to match a surveyor’s workflow. Automatic tilt compensator, motorised alignment telescope, long-life integrated battery and powerful, touchscreen HHC and acquisition interface are just some features ensuring accuracy, reliability and ease of use.

 

An integrated 70 megapixel panoramic digital camera provides colour texture data which can be automatically applied to scan surfaces. Accurate geotechnical and geological mapping results can be safely achieved working directly from the 3D textures.

 

The scanner comes complete with Maptek I-Site Studio software, the leading point cloud processing, modelling and analysis software. The latest version contains new features to make scanning projects more efficient. 

 

International exposure of the new I-Site 8800 scanner will start with SPAR 2010 in Houston, Texas, USA, in February, followed by appearances at the Maptek Users Conference in South Africa in March, and the FIG International Congress in Sydney, Australia in April.

3D Scanning of Historic Sugar Factories

The Alliance for Integrated Spatial Technologies at the University of South Florida, USA, recently worked with the Florida Park Service on a project to document the remains of several historic sugar-mill sites in the State Parks to create as-builts to be used in preservation and conservation of these resources. The FARO LS 880, along with GPS and total station georeferencing and colour imaging, was used on these projects.
