Terrestrial laser scanner

Description

Northumbria University has procured a high-precision Terrestrial Laser Scanner to support the 'Building Local Capacity To Improve The Protection And Management Of The Blue And John Crow Mountains National Park' project. The equipment provides high-resolution 3D geospatial data essential for habitat mapping, heritage site documentation, and long-term conservation monitoring of the National Park's unique topography. Specifically, this unit utilizes advanced waveform processing for rapid data acquisition in complex terrain, paired with a high-resolution external imaging system. This integration allows for the generation of true-color, photorealistic 3D point clouds, ensuring that environmental and structural changes can be analyzed with sub-centimetre accuracy. ## Contract award
