Terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) are increasingly used in several applications such as
reverse engineering, digital reconstruction of historical monuments, geodesy and surveying …

Up until now no appropriate models have been proposed that are capable to describe the
stochastic characteristics of reflectorless rangefinders-the key component of terrestrial laser …

Due to improved laser scanning technology, laser scanner based deformation analyses are
presently widespread. These deformation analyses are no longer based on individual points …

This study was aimed at integrating surveys from terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and high-
precision scanning performed by a drone (ULS) for a tower structure. This will allow a …

Recent advances in stochastic modelling of reflectorless rangefinders revealed an inherent
relationship among raw intensity values and the corresponding precision of observed …

In terms of high precision requested deformation analyses, evaluating laser scan data
requires the exact knowledge of the functional and stochastic model. If this is not given, a …

Both Terrestrial Laser Scanners (TLSs) and Metrological Laser Radars (MLRs) are typical
Spherical Coordinate Laser Scanners (SCLSs), which are used for various fields requiring …

For a trustworthy least-squares (LS) solution, a good description of the stochastic properties
of the measurements is indispensable. For a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS), the range …

The target-based point cloud registration and calibration of terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs)
are mathematically modeled and solved by the least-squares adjustment. However, usual …

The main goal of our research was to design and implement an innovative target that would
be suitable for accurately registering point clouds produced from unmanned aerial vehicle …
