Terrestrial Laser Scanner
We are proud to announce that added a terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS)
to our toolkit for science applications - a State-of-the-Art Riegl VZ400i.
-
High laser pulse repetition rate of up to 1.2 MHz
-
High speed data acquisition up to 500,000 measurements/sec
-
Wide field of view, 100°x360°
-
Range up to 800 m, accuracy 5 mm
This new addition is enabled through a close cooperation with the Maxim Foundation in Cairns, also a science-oriented Not-For-Profit organisation.
The TLS can be used as a stand-alone sensor
or make a powerful combination with the existing ARA airborne Lidars (ALS).
