Riegl VZ-400

The VZ-400 scanner can be used for terrestrial and mobile applications. Also contributing to the versatility of this instrument is the variety of ways that the scan positions can be registered. The VZ-400 has an integrated GPS receiver (with 2.5mm accuracy) and it can be used for stand-alone registration. The instrument can also register via control points or use a totalstation-like registration process. The VZ-400 takes 125,000 measurements per second and has an accuracy of 5mm.
