Abstract
Ground-based laser scanning is a new technology available to photogrammetrists, geodesists and surveyors for rapid and extremely dense spatial data capture. This paper describes some of the fundamentals of scanner operation, followed by a review of the salient properties of five commercially available scanner systems. Scanner geometry, observables and associated co-ordinate transformations are then detailed. Several case studies selected from research conducted at Curtin University are described to complete the paper.
