3d documentation in dangerous and confined spaces by dr. travis doering, ph. d
DESCRIPTION
The sites of some of America’s proudest moments and historical achievements are eroding and rusting away at Florida’s Cape Canaveral. Using terrestrial laser scanning in combination with aerial LiDAR, imaging, and geospatial documentation, researchers at the University of South Florida are digitally preserving and conditionally assessing these structures to develop management and interpretive plans and curriculum to teach field methods and preservation skills to scientists of the future.TRANSCRIPT

SCANNING UNDERGROUND
• Project used digital imaging, terrestrial laser scanning, and aerial LiDAR combined with remote sensing and GPS survey
• We documented, prepared conditional analysis, and are developing public interpretation methods that extend management, preservation, and interpretation potentials that yield insight into important historical events in our Nation's history.
