safely from the footpaths by making full
use of its 600+ m range. Additionally, he
was able to scan selectively to speed up
the process. The SX10 is driven by
Trimble's Access software on a tablet
which means he could draw a polygon
over the tablet's live video feed enabling
him to define the scan area and density. In
each case the polygon scans were
overlapped to check the accuracy of the
set ups typically achieving a difference of
1.5mm over 100m.
Jordan also used the SX10's built in
VISION technology camera to colourise the
pointcloud, to clarify the different types of
vegetation on and around the cliffs.
Finally, with just one instrument required for
the survey work, the portability of the SX10
meant that Jordan's team felt that they
could wrap it sufficiently in a waterproof
covering to ensure its safety whilst they
kayaked through Merlin's cave to reach a
cove not normally accessible by the public.
Once the job was completed, the scans
were automatically registered and QA'd.
The 5mm accuracies specified by English
Heritage were easily achieved and the
survey delivered on time.
