Laser Mapping Saves Time on Isle of Man

  11/01/2012
A project to revitalise the Isle of Man's capital town Douglas is benefiting from detailed 3D survey data captured by the mobile laser mapping system, StreetMapper. The vehicle-based laser scanning system was used to survey an area of central Douglas including the beachfront promenade.
 

 

Promenade Douglas

The millimetre-accurate measurements collected by the StreetMapper system will be used to support ambitious regeneration plans including the relaying of lines for the historic Douglas Bay Horse Tramway, revised seafront parking and a project to enhance the appearance of both the footpath and roadway in the popular resort.  


The StreetMapper system completed the survey along Douglas seafront in a matter of hours without any real disruption to other road users and during normal working hours. The system captured millions of individual measurements, documenting existing infrastructure and assets on the highway and footpath and recording detailed mapping of building facades and other structures.

Using Total Stations for Indoor Radiation Mapping

 

A total station can be used for many applications. Oak Ridge Associated Universities (USA) uses a total station for indoor radiation characterisation, which enables the team to better perform environmental assessments. This video shows how it is done.
