Abstract: A method for optically scanning and measuring a scene by a three-dimensional (3D) measurement device in which multiple scans are generated to then be registered in a joint coordinate system of the scene. At first at least one cluster is generated from at least one scan, further scans are registered for test purposes in the coordinate system of the cluster, if specified quality criteria are fulfilled and the generated clusters are then joined, for which purpose clusters are selected, registered for test purposes and registering is confirmed if appropriate, wherein the clusters to be joined are visualized with an optional possibility for the user to intervene, for supporting the selection of clusters.

Abstract: The invention is a method and an apparatus for determining travel data of a travel device when wheels or rollers of the travel device intermittently have ground contact. The apparatus has an odometer on at least one measuring roller. For the correct determination of the travel data, there is a correcting device for correcting the path length measured by the odometer in the case of interruptions of the ground contact of the measuring roller. In the case of established, sporadic interruptions of ground contact, the measured path length is corrected for obtaining the actually covered path length.
