Application of Terrestrial Laser Scanner in engineering survey

For evaluating the objective measured by the traditional measurement technology that is continuous and periodic single point observation method, it is one-sided and uncertainty. The 3D laser scanning technology called the real scene reproduction technology can provide the support for the 3D design of all kinds of tested objectives in the favorable data. It not only simplifies the construction project cost and improves the work efficiency, but also the results of its data evaluation are more reliable and comprehensive. In the past ten years, the terrestrial laser scanner as a physical representative of the three-dimensional laser scanning technology has been applied in some industries such as electric power, archaeology, factories, cities, Bridges, hotels, ships, criminal investigation to represent its immeasurable value. In this paper, these cases applied in the hotel, sculpture, landscape wall, karst cave are more representative to show a variety of terrestrial laser scanner applications.
