I attended the SPAR2010 conference in Houston last week. Terrestrial LiDAR is where I see new opportunities for traditional survey firms. The process piping, mining, and transportation sectors are all becoming aware of the benefits of this technology as well as the architectural, archeaological, and forensic science professions. This is your chance to get on the bus and get a good seat. The win-win benefits for all stakeholders are real and measurable.
The key benefits of 3d laser scanning are the big cost savings, time savings, higher quality deliverables and better site safety aspects. Learn more about this growing industry at http://www.sparllc.com/. Also check out LiDAR News.
