Anderson has been utilizing LiDAR scanning for several years to optimize and expedite indoor and outdoor surveying projects. Lidar uses ultraviolet, visible, or near infrared light to image objects. It can target a wide range of materials, including non-metallic objects, rocks, chemical compounds, water, and even single molecules. Using a narrow laser-beam LiDAR scanning can map physical features with very high resolution. Digital data can then be processed into computer models to create near identical 3D model of the physical features. Models can be loaded with complex details for the most accurate renderings or loaded with fewer specifications to provide a simplified computer model for presentations. Digital scanning provides extensive information which can not be obtained through traditional survey techniques and can be performed in a fraction of the time. Anderson’s LiDAR scanning method is ideal for surveying roadways, the interior or exterior of buildings, complex utilities, machinery, environmental formations, or anything with intricate sections.
