Mobile Laser Scanning

Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) is a surveying technology that uses laser scanners mounted on vehicles to capture detailed 3D data of infrastructure, roads, and environments while in motion.

How Does MLS Work?

Here’s a simplified overview of the MLS process:

Vehicle Mounting: Laser scanners, GPS, and inertial measurement units (IMUs) are mounted on a vehicle.
Data Collection: As the vehicle moves, the laser scanners emit pulses of laser light towards the surroundings.
Reflection and Detection: The laser pulses reflect off the surroundings and return to the vehicle, where they’re detected by the laser scanners.
Point Cloud Creation: The detected laser pulses are combined with GPS and IMU data to create a 3D point cloud of the surroundings.

Applications of MLS

MLS has a wide range of applications, including:

Road Surveying: Capturing detailed 3D data of roads, highways, and infrastructure for maintenance, repair, and construction.
Asset Management: Mapping and inventorying infrastructure assets, such as utilities, signs, and signals.
Transportation Planning: Analyzing traffic flow, pedestrian movement, and transportation infrastructure.
Smart City Initiatives: Creating detailed 3D models of urban environments for urban planning, public safety, and emergency response.
Environmental Monitoring: Mapping and monitoring environmental changes, such as vegetation, water bodies, and land use.

Benefits of MLS MLS offers several benefits, including:

High-Speed Data Collection: MLS can collect data at speeds of up to 100 km/h.
High-Accuracy Data: MLS provides high-accuracy 3D data with precision down to 1-2 cm.
Increased Safety: MLS reduces the risk of injury or death by minimizing the need for physical access to hazardous areas.
Cost Savings: MLS can reduce survey costs by minimizing the need for manual data collection.
Improved Efficiency: MLS enables faster data collection and processing, reducing project timelines.
