DATA PROCESSING
It is necessary to process the raw data collected by the ZEB‐HORIZON using GeoSLAM’s 3D SLAM algorithm to
generate a homogenous 3D point cloud of the environment that has been mapped. This is done using the
GeoSLAM Hub processing software.
Installation of GeoSLAM Hub software is described in a separate User Guide.
Before the raw data can be processed is must be extracted from the zip file downloaded from the ZEB‐HORIZON
data logger. Copy the zip file from the USB memory stick used to download the file from the data logger to a
suitable folder on the PC running GeoSLAM Hub and extract the dot geoslam file (
YYYY‐MM‐DD_hh‐mm‐
ss
.geoslam
). To extract a file from a zip file right click on the zip file and select “Extract All…” from the drop‐down
list.
Start the GeoSLAM Hub application and drag and drop the dot geoslam file (
YYYY‐MM‐DD_hh‐mm‐ss
.geoslam
) to
be processed into the “Drop datasets here to process” field on the user interface shown in Figure 5‐1.
Figure 5-1
The dataset will be imported into GeoSLAM Hub and will automatically start to process. After approximately the
same time it took to capture the dataset the processing of the dataset should be complete and become available
for viewing and post‐processing as shown in Figure 5‐2.
