Survey Video Scan .
This feature is only available when using a supported total station
with a USB or supported radio connection, and only on data collectors
running Windows Mobile 5.
The Video Scan routine will quickly take several measurements
within a predefined area (scan frame). The data is stored to a *.tsf
Point Cloud file, which, along with the raw data file, can be read by
Trimble RealWorks software to digitally model the surface. Full 360°
3D surfaces can be modeled with RealWorks for areas that are
scanned from three different occupy points around the area.
RealWorks is also able to integrate any photos taken of the area with
the scanned data.
