 MAIN TECHNICAL FEATURES
OF A LASER SCANNER SURVEY

3D laser scanner is a relatively new technique used in terrestrial surveying. There are many different laser scanning systems and
types. But about the category we can summarize two main groups:

‐ time‐of‐flight (TOF): the speed of light is known very precisely,

so if we know how long a laser takes to reach an object and reflect
back to a sensor, we know how far away that object is. These
systems use circuitry that is accurate to picoseconds to measure
the time it takes for millions of pulses of the laser to return to the
sensor, and calculates a distance. By rotating the laser and sensor
(usually via a mirror), the scanner can scan up to a full 360 degrees
around itself.

‐ Phase shift: The scanner emits modulated waves and the

distance is calculated by comparing the emitted wave phase with
the one received after reflection on the surface of the object. This
TIME OF FLIGHT
class of instruments generally has a more limited scope of those
time of flight but a scanning speed also significantly higher. For this
reason, some scanners phase difference are used in dynamic LASER PHASE SHIFT
applications (on moving platforms: trains, car, etc.). In addition to
RANGEFINDER
pulsing the laser, these systems also modulate the power of the
laser beam, and the scanner compares the phase of the laser being
sent out and then returned to the sensor. Used for shorter
distances.

MAIN TYPES OF LASER SCANNERS

The best way to improve the

knowledge on the wide
panorama of laser scanners is to
take a look and check the official
webpages of these main brands.
Now this technology is improving
fast and fast. Its potentiality
grows up and architect surveyors
need to upgrade constantly
his/her knowledge.

 SOME GLOSSARY AND THE ROLE OF TARGETS
Targets are SPECIFIC and STRATEGIC points thanks to with it’s possible to connect different ScanWorlds.
A ScanWorld is the partial result of a laser scanner activity from one ScanStation;
A ScanStation it’s called the position where the laser scanner is located for elaborating a scanworld.
Thanks to the use of targets it’s possible to link different scanWorlds . This operation is called “registration”.
A Registration is a specific operation made with Cyclone software (or similar) thanks to with the sotware process specific
algebric and geometrical calculations in order to connect different scanworlds.

In the center of the target HDS

there is a small refletor visible
and recognizable from the laser
scanner. With a laser ScanStation2
it’s possible to acquire this point
immediately during the survey
operations.

CYCLONE SOFTWARE

Cyclone represents the official software for the management of point clouds realized with a Leica Scanner laser.

Each brand has its own software. For transfering a

Z+F FROCHLICH FARO RIEGL point cloud from a software to enother one it’s
recommended to export the point cloud in .PTX,
.PTS extension and then import it again in the
ZF Laser Control CAM2 software RiSCAN sofware new software.

HOW TO CREATE A SNAPSHOT AND AN ORTHOIMAGE
After the elaboration of the cutting plane and after the realization of the section you can elaborate the snapshot / orthoimage, ie the
image needed to be imported on autocad to perform the vector drawing.

HOW TO MANAGE THE RESOLUTION and the GRAPHIC QUALITY OF THE IMAGE
• In edit‐‐‐properties increase the loading of points (from 40.000 until 90.000 mln)
• make more or less dense the point cloud with cloud density reduction
• Define the dimension of the dots with point width
• Reduce the presence of noise elements: switch off the line segment, switch off the coordinate system (UCS) symbol.
Then create the Snapshot: file ‐‐‐ snapshot ‐‐‐ save (choose the extension, f.ex. .jpeg, .tiff, etc.) ‐‐‐ save.
Image size: from 1500 until 5000 width and keep active Keep aspect ratio
Or create an Orthoimage: file ‐‐‐ Export ‐‐‐ select the extension file “Ortho Image” ‐‐‐ define the resolution as for the snapshots
images.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A SNAPSHOT AND AN ORTHOIMAGE
At first they may seem similar, but in fact they have substantial differences. The Orthoimage give to the surveyor several detailed informations
fundamental for the drawing of the point cloud on AutoCAD software. When you export/save an image from Cyclone you obtain:

ORTHO IMAGE SNAPSHOT

result of the laser scanner project

Lecture 3
 FROM THE ORTHOIMAGE TO THE VECTOR DRAWING
MAIN STEPS

1. Create on Cyclone the vertical/horizontal section

that you want to elaborate;

Notes:
‐ For horizontal sections: move the cutplane at 1,20‐1,50 mt above the floor level, and,
in general, set your cut plane at the windows levels. In this way, your technical
drawings will have the correct representation of the whole distributions of the main
windows and doors.
‐ For vertical section: set your cut plane in the middle of doors and in general in the way
that you can appreciate the organization of the spaces and understand the distribution
of the rooms.
‐ For the representation standards and rules is recommended to dissect on the empty
parts.

2. Manage all those parameters that can increase the quality of the restitution of the image and the resolution of
the point cloud (f.ex. number of points loaded and displaied, switch off the cutplane, switch off the UCS, handle the
colours from the «colour map» of the point cloud and so on);

5. Collect all your orthoimages with their file texts in a specific folder AND after that open an AutoCad file.
Let’s start to insert all these orthoimages on AutoCad. Follow the instructions reported on each file text!

a. UNITS  meters
b. UCS  world
c. Insert the first orthoimage with (0,0,0) origin
d. Rotate 3D in all the direction described
a. For the floorplans there will not be
rotation;
b. For sections there will be a X, Y and Z
rotations
e. Move the orthoimage from (0,0,0) point to the
coordinates written on the file text.
NOTE: before copy the coordinates, remember
to delete the space between each singular
coordinate number. Then copy and paste on
AutoCad.

For ex:
If you have ( 0.5; 0.14; 0.98)
First of all remove this yellow spaces then copy
and paste the numbers.

The «registration» is the technical operation thanks to with we can combine 2 or more different ScanWorlds in a
same project.
• PRELIMINARY STEP: it’s necessary to rename the targets acquired during the survey campaign.
• We are going to work on the CONTROLSPACES of each ScanWorld needed;

• Lock the point cloud (from the Layers list)  Use the «pick mode» and
select the first target;

1. Set your «Home ScanWorld»

2. Auto/Add Constraint

3. Check the Constrait List

4. Register
During this step it’s possible to check the dimension of the error for each target. You
have to remember that the «error on the targets» it’s not the error on the point
cloud. In fact, during the process of unification the software will distribute the
quantity of the error on the whole target system trying to reduce at the minimum
level the presence or error.

7. Tools  Animation  Animation Editor

Lesson 6
 HOW TO REALIZE A VIDEO ANIMATION OF THE POINT CLOUD
The ANIMATION EDITOR
a) Define the number of Frames that you want to have
between each cameras range (usually for medium
distances you can choose 15 frames)

b) Repeat this operation for all the cameras ranges

changing the «Keyframes»
f.ex. From 1 TO 2 15 frames  Set
From 2 TO 3 15 frames  Set …. etc….
If a range is longer you can increase the number of frames
or if you want a «slow motion effect» increase strongly the
number of frames.

c) When you have finished to insert your data click «OK»

Before starting the «animation rendering phase» remember to go back to the Layers List, switch off the «Spline»
layer and the «cameras» layer; increase the number of points of the point cloud and set all the necessary things for
having a good representation of the point cloud.

8. Tools  Animation  Animate  To Video File  Choose where you

want to save the file

9. Rename your file  Choose the «.AVI» extension and click «Animate»
10. Choose «Frames not compressed» and click «ok»

Lesson 6
 HOW TO REALIZE A VIDEO ANIMATION OF THE POINT CLOUD
Cyclone will start to perform and build the video animation.
During this process you cannot use Cyclone for other prurposes and it’s recommended to do not force the hardware
of your laptop.
For these reasons it’s also advised to plan the realization of the video animation when you can stop your work
activities on your PC and leave it totally concentrated for this operation!
