The Leica ScanStation
For any project, it makes sense to deploy the right tools. For as-built, topographic, detail, and engineering surveys, Leica High-Definition Surveying (HDS) systems are the way to go. Leica Geosystems' product family not only includes powerful and versatile time-of-flight laser scanners such as the Leica ScanStation C10 but also features the ultra-high-speed, phased-based laser scanner, the Leica HDS6200 and the Leica HDS8800 mine scanning system. This portfolio of products becomes complete with Leica Cyclone, Leica CloudWorx and Leica TruView software, providing a full set of Leica geo-referencing, surveying, and CAD integrated engineering tools for creating accurate deliverables and working with large scan data sets with unparalleled ease. High-Definition Surveying not only offers many benefits to the measurement professional, but also to the recipients and users of accurate spatial information. Civil engineers, plant designers, CAD professionals, architects, contractors, forensic investigators, archaeologists, and owner/operators can all reap the cost and added-value benefits that HDS provides.
The ScanStation C10 platform represents the most capabilities and best value packed into a single laser scanner instrument. Users can take advantage of surveyor-friendly, onboard total station-like control or use an external laptop for even more powerful, onsite viewing and data processing.
Versatility
ScanStation C10 combines all-in-one portability with the ability of users to traverse, resection or use scan targets for maximum flexibility in dealing with site logistics. Full 360º x 270º field-of-view, high accuracy, long range (300m @90% reflectivity), and high scan speed (50k pts/sec) add to ScanStation C10's position as the industry's most versatile scanner.
Major Productivity Advances
ScanStation is faster than its predecessor ScanStation 2 in many ways. It does full dome scans up to 10X faster -- now, less than 2 minutes for a typical room. It also conducts general 360º and focused areas scans faster, can be setup & moved faster, lets users locate targets, register & geo-reference faster, and lets users check scan results faster.
Valuable Cost Savings
ScanStation is easy to learn, with a total station-like interface and intuitive, onboard graphic color touch screen display. It is also incrementally upgradeable over time, uses standard total station batteries, and features fewer accessories -- all of this contributes to a reduced cost of ownership.
