10. MEASURING (SCANNING)
There are two types of scanning: target scanning that only measures the target, and 3D scanning that
obtains 3D data.
Scanned data will be saved in the Station folder in the SD card.
Target scanning
Perform target scanning to measure the target placed within the range of 3D scanning. This
target scanning data is used to align 3D scanning data from multiple instrument points by post-
processing.
Target scanning provides the coordinate data on which the target is centered.
3D scanning
Perform 3D scanning to obtain the 3D data.
First, determine the scanning range, and then set parameters for the resolution of scanning.
• The name of the folder will be the same as that of the station which has been set.
