3D MOBILE LIDAR SURVEYING IN AMTRAK'S NEW YORK PENN STATION

摘要

Utilizing mobile LiDAR (Light Detection & Ranging) technology in a non-GPS environment to provide 3D mapping of rail infrastructure systems and the physical facility features without disrupting passenger service or daily maintenance operations in the busiest rail facility in the U.S. Amtrak's New York Penn Station (NYPS) has challenged conventional surveying and mapping technologies for years to produce a single, continuous, mapping data set throughout the entire facility with data accuracies of a 34" or better. The unique 3D mobile LiDAR solution developed utilized some the most advance surveying technologies and applications currently available.
