How to Get Survey-Grade Accuracy from LiDAR Laser Scans!

[@MaxxH.G4GR]

Great application of the GS05: setting targets for UAS post processing and scan project control. Small, light, and powerful. The RTC is usually the best fit for most, but the P-Series is a beast for precision and range.

That video reminds me of my seismic surveyor days. Pounding lathe in the frozen ground kills.the arms. Grest video.

Where can I buy the jacket😊

Any reason why you chose this unit instead of the RTC360

[@RamiTamimi]

P series gives us the ability to level our scanner. Plus more point density which is useful in wooded environments.

[@MaxxH.G4GR]

In general, the P Series allows for more traditional surveying procedures (i.e. setting up over a known point), greater detail, and longer range. The RTC allows for ease of use, faster scans, smaller size, and different budget. P Series users are typically trying to do larger and or highly precise tasks like scanning large towers/structures, long stretches of inaccessible bridges/infrastructure or any project demanding the highest level of precision. The RTC is more of a workhorse that balances speed, size, agility, and ease of use while performing strongly in both indoor and outdoor applications. The RTC is typically the best option for most users.

@ so you didn’t find the self leveling desirable that the rtc360 offers?

[@benstagram97]

@ I see what you mean. Thanks for elaborating!

Decent quality gnss under a metal bridge with half the satelites blocked at min3:30. Really brother🤦‍♀

[@RamiTamimi]

3D quality and absolute accuracy are two different things. I will be reporting on the overall accuracy of the point cloud during my presentation next week.

[@landmeterbeuckx4779]

@@RamiTamimi i know but my point is never set a gnss like that, no matter what kind of project it is... It's just bad practice.

[@johnleonard2202]

​@@landmeterbeuckx4779he also talked about the tilt compensation being a good thing to have, even though it should be turned off when setting control like that and using a bipod.

Poor surveyor here. Can you send me $100,000 so I can buy a Leica P40. Thanks. PS. I know this is just a demo but seeing someone hammer just a nail into soft ground to mark a setup is making me nervous.

[@RamiTamimi]

That ground was frozen solid 🥶

[@anivegmin]

@RamiTamimi Yeah fair enough, but I'm assuming it will thaw, and it just gave me a general sense of nervousness. Would probably have done the same myself if no-one was watching haha.
