Laser scanning enables large areas to be surveyed quickly without interfering with personnel and machinery operations in parallel activities on the project.

While these interferences are not a problem in the field, some difficulties could arise during processing that previously required manual correction through editing and cleaning of the point cloud.

The new moving object segmentation tool in TRW, available in the CORE module, automates this process, filtering out moving objects without the need for a double position in each scan.

This TRW tip shows how to use the automatic moving object segmentation tool.
