SYSTEM FOR LOCATING AND CHARACTERIZING A TOPOGRAPHIC FEATURE FROM A WORK VEHICLE

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a work vehicle having a system for locating and characterizing a topographic feature at a job site. The located topographic feature may be characterized using or more optical instruments, such as a visible-light camera, an infrared-radiation camera, a spectrometer, an infrared thermometer, and a laser-based gas detector. The location and the characteristic of the topographic feature may be combined to produce an informative record of the topographic feature at the job site.
