  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VISUALIZING AND MEASURING REAL WORLD 3-D SPATIAL DATA
    Publication number: 20080131029
    Abstract: Systems and methods for viewing and measuring real world 3-D spatial data using corresponding image data and interpolation of low resolution 3-D spatial data is disclosed. Image data and 3-D spatial data are organized as a 3-D polygonal model. The resultant 3-D polygonal model may be viewed, measured or edited efficiently on a computer. The image data and 3-D data are aligned, and a point on the polygonal model may be measured. Additionally, low resolution 3-D spatial data and image data may be combined with high resolution and highly accurate 3-D spatial data and image data. The resultant combination of data sets may then be organized, aligned, viewed, measured or edited in an efficient manner on a computer.

  • GPS-enhanced system and method for automatically capturing and co-registering virtual models of a site
    Patent number: 6759979
    Abstract: A system for capturing a virtual model of a site includes a range scanner for scanning the site to generate range data indicating distances from the range scanner to real-world objects. The system also includes a global positioning system (GPS) receiver coupled to the range scanner for acquiring GPS data for the range scanner at a scanning location. In addition, the system includes a communication interface for outputting a virtual model comprising the range data and the GPS data.
