In this study, the operation method and accuracy of Terrestrial Laser Scanner(TLS) are reviewed and discussed by experimental measurements, and guidelines of TLS surveying operation are proposed. Ground control points and TLS station points were measured by TS and/or GPS, in TLS observation experiments, and wood targets were used which designed by this study team. RMSE accuracy of TLS scan shows that TLS surveying operation can be used in the topographic mapping of 1/250 scale and level of 1/100 BIM, the drone data also used in TLS data completeness. Additionally, as the results of the field experiment, the guidelines for TLS surveying operartions were proposed.

Albeit the use of terrestrial 3D laser scanner (TLS) in the parts of landslide monitoring, cultural heritage documentation, civil engineering, urban engineering, etc. is increasing more and more, there is no international standardization regulation about the accuracy evaluation of the geometric element values, target, instrument calibration and test procedures, etc. Accordingly, this study deals with the manufacturing of TLS performance test target and the evaluation of TLS distance measurement and shows its suitability as the test target.

Terrestrial Laser Scanner and Airborne Laser Scanning is one of the state of art surveying equipments. So This study deals with the combined use of mobile TLS(Terrestrial Laser Scanner) with ALS(Airborne Laser Scanning) to extract shoreline's topography information. These two systems have their own pros and cons. Mobile TLS can capture the facades of a low story building along the shoreline fast and quickly. Meanwhile, Due to viewpoint restrictions of ALS data collection, the amount of detail, which is available for the building facades is very limited. Therefore, it is recommended that the co-registration and geo-referencing methods of both two should be developed and the application of both system for shoreline mapping also should be investigated.

Recently, photogrammetry, TLS(Terrestrial Laser Scanner), MMS(Mobile Mapping System)-based techniques have been applied to estimate earthwork volume for construction management. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the accuracy of earthwork volume estimating between photogrammetry and TLS, MMS that improves the traditional surveying method in convenience, estimating accuracy. For this, the following research works are conducted sequentially; 1) literature review, 2) core algorithm analysis, 3) surveying data acquisition using photogrammetry, TLS, MMS, 4) estimated earthwork volume comparison according to surveying method. As a result of the experiment, it was analyzed that there were earthwork volume errors of 1,207.5m³ (14.03%) of UAV-based digital map, 391.5m³(4.55%) of UAV, TLS integrated digital map, and 294.9m³(3.43%) of UAV, MMS integrated digital map. It is expected that the result of this study will be enormous due to the availability of the analyzed data.

Recently laser scanning technologies become widely used in many areas of the modern economy. In the following paper authors show a potential spectrum of use Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) in diagnostics of reinforced concrete elements. Based on modes of failure analysis of reinforcement concrete beam authors describe downsides and advantages of adaptation of terrestrial laser scanning to this purpose, moreover reveal under which condition this technology might be used. Research studies were conducted by Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Gdansk University of Technology. An experiment involved bending of reinforced concrete beam, the process was registered by the terrestrial laser scanner. Reinforced concrete beam was deliberately overloaded and eventually failed by shear. Whole failure process was tracing and recording by scanner Leica ScanStation C10 and verified by synchronous photographic registration supported by digital photogrammetry methods. Obtained data were post-processed in Leica Cyclone (dedicated software) and MeshLab (program on GPL license). The main goal of this paper is to prove the effectiveness of TLS in diagnostics of reinforced concrete elements. Authors propose few methods and procedures to virtually reconstruct failure process, measure geometry and assess a condition of structure.

Automatic building material recognition has been a popular research interest over the past decade because it is useful for construction management and facility management. Currently, the extensively used methods for automatic material recognition are mainly based on 2D images. A terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) with a built-in camera can generate a set of coloured laser scan data that contains not only the visual features of building materials but also other attributes such as material reflectance and surface roughness. With more characteristics provided, laser scan data have the potential to improve the accuracy of building material recognition. Therefore, this research aims to develop a TLS-based building material recognition method by combining machine learning techniques. The developed method uses material reflectance, HSV colour values, and surface roughness as the features for material recognition. A database containing the laser scan data of common building materials was created and used for model training and validation with machine learning techniques. Different machine learning algorithms were compared, and the best algorithm showed an average recognition accuracy of 96.5%, which demonstrated the feasibility of the developed method.

Currently, there is a considerable interest in 3D object reconstruction using terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) systems due to their ability to automatically generate a considerable amount of points in a very short time. To fully map an object, multiple scans are captured. The different scans need to be registered with the help of the point cloud in the overlap regions. To guarantee reliable registration, the scans should have large overlap ratio with good geometry for the estimation of the transformation parameters among these scans. The objective of this paper is to propose a registration method that relaxes/eliminates the overlap requirement through the utilization of photogrammetrically reconstructed features. More specifically, a point-based procedure, which utilizes non-conjugate points along corresponding linear features from photogrammetric and TLS data, will be used for the registration. The non-correspondence of the selected points along the linear features is compensated for by artificially modifying their weight matrices. The paper presents experimental results from simulated and real datasets to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed procedure.

This study deals with the measurement of reflectivity as well as the distance accuracy with Terrestrial Laser Scanner(TLS) using time of flight methods and near infrared wave length, for a variety of user-made targets. Especially, point clouds' reflection to several targets was measured with Gretag Macbeth il spectrophotometer in the office. And the distance accuracy in comparison to reference distance for TLS performance evaluation, was tested after scanning the user-made targets and measuring the inter-pillars distances over the precise EDM calibration baseline. The results of test was shown that except white resin objects, with approx. 10m and 170m inter-pillar distances, other targets achieved the distance accuracy of several millimeters(mm) with respect to standard distances. Future work should be concentrate on a few parameters influencing on the distance accuracy such as atmospheric correction, instrument correction, the additive constant or zero/index correction, etc.
