Bridge Scanning
The GKS team can use the Faro LS-880 to document existing and new
bridges accurately and efficiently.

Photo 2: The image above shows a partial
scan. The distortion is again due to the “flattening” effect
mentioned above. Note that this data, as well as that in photo 1,
is a result of the laser scanning process, and is not based on the use
of any sort of camera. The laser actually records the light value
of the objects it scans and assigns a grayscale value to each collected
data point. |

3:
The image above shows the color version of the same scan data as in
photo number 2. Through the optional attachment of a digital
camera, the LS-880 can assign true color values to the points rather
than the standard grayscale value. Again, while this image appears
to be a digital photograph, it is actually a colorized set of point data
that is fully measurable. |

Photo 4: The image above shows just some of
the raw 3D points within the Faro software. Through scanning from
multiple positions, the entire church interior was scanned within one
hour. |
