Use of a High-Resolution 3D Laser Scanner for Minefield Surface Modeling and Terrain Characterization: Temperate Region

摘要

The use of a high-resolution, ground-based 3D laser scanner was recently evaluated for terrestrial site characterization of variable-surface minefield sites and generation of surface and terrain models. The instrument used to conduct this research was a Leica HDS3000 3D laser scanner. The high- speed, highly accurate ranging system has a 360 deg horizontal x 270 deg vertical field of view that delivers positional, range, and angular (vertical and horizontal) single point accuracies (range 1 to 50 m) of 6 mm, 4 mm, and 60 micro-radians, respectively. The laser is a class 3R and is completely eye-safe with a wavelength of 523 nm and spot size of less than less than or equal.
