Terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) are increasingly used in several applications such as
reverse engineering, digital reconstruction of historical monuments, geodesy and surveying …

During the registration and georeferencing of terrestrial laser scans, it is common to use
targets to mark discrete points. To improve the accuracy of the registration, the uncertainties …

For accurate astronomic and geodetic observations based on radio telescopes, the
elevation-dependent deformation of the radio telescopes' main reflectors should be known …

To improve the positional accuracy of point-clouds, a self-calibration model of a terrestrial
laser scanner (TLS) was used to calibrate mounting angle errors as systematic errors. The …

Calibration of terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs) is one of the fundamental tasks for assuring
the high measurement accuracy required by an increasing number of end-users …

Target-based calibration is the most widely used calibration procedure for terrestrial laser
scanners. Nevertheless, the current implementations of this procedure are suboptimal due to …

Terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) measurements are unavoidably affected by systematic
influences due to internal misalignments. The magnitude of the resulting errors can exceed …

The target-based point cloud registration and calibration of terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs)
are mathematically modeled and solved by the least-squares adjustment. However, usual …

The ability to acquire rapid, dense and high quality 3D data has made terrestrial laser
scanners (TLS) a desirable instrument for tasks demanding a high geometrical accuracy …

Viewpoint planning of terrestrial laser scanning surveys is often guided by the level of
accuracy, which is a measure of radiated point precision that does not account for all factors …
