Albeit the use of terrestrial 3D laser scanner (TLS) in the parts of landslide monitoring, cultural heritage documentation, civil engineering, urban engineering, etc. is increasing more and more, there is no international standardization regulation about the accuracy evaluation of the geometric element values, target, instrument calibration and test procedures, etc. Accordingly, this study deals with the manufacturing of TLS performance test target and the evaluation of TLS distance measurement and shows its suitability as the test target.

3D terrestrial laser scanners record high precision three-dimensional coordinates of numerous points on an object surface in a short period of time, and is applied to a wide variety of fields including geodesy, and civil engineering, archaeology and architecture, and emergency service and defence, etc. However, most of terrestrial laser scanner utilized in homeland, were imported from foreign country, and also was not authorized formally as the surveying instrument. Therefore, standard test facility to calibrate and perform its evaluation in order to utilize it in a variety of fields is required. This study deals with the test facility of foreign countries for terrestrial laser scanner and suggest the establishment scheme of domestic test facility.

According to the increasing demand for 3D indoor spatial information, the utilization of a terrestrial laser scanner comes to the fore. However, the research for the comparison between a terrestrial laser scanning method and a traditional surveying method is insufficient. The paper evaluated the time-efficiency and the locational accuracy of an AMCW type and a direct TOF type of terrestrial laser scanning methods in comparison with the observation using a total station. As a result, an AMCW type showed higher time-efficiency than a direct TOF type and the RMSE between the two types of data was ${\pm}1mm$. Moreover, the terrestrial laser scanning method showed twice higher time-efficiency than the observation using a total station and the RMSE between the two data was ${\pm}3.4cm$. The results indicate that the terrestrial laser scanning method has better profitability and performance for 3D indoor modeling than the traditional survey using a total station. In the future, a terrestrial laser scanner can be efficiently utilized in the construction of 3D indoor spatial information.

This study is to improve position accuracy by selecting proper a servo motor and applying FOC(Field Oriented Control) on developing a 3D terrestrial laser scanner. A 3D terrestrial laser scanner under developing has range of scanning of azimuth 360$^\circ$and elevation 270$^\circ$. It is implemented by precise controlling of a azimuth motor and a elevation motor. In the consequence of study, we have known that position accuracy of the motor can be able to be improved with constant torque of the motor by using FOC(Field Oriented Control). The control technic of the motor is possible to apply a 3D terrestrial laser scanner as well as a robotic total station.

Surveyors has desired eagerly surveying technology and equipments which are able to acquire a lot of data easily, quickly and precisely. Laser has the merits that is able to obtain a large number of measurements with high precision in a short time and one of concrete realizations is a terrestrial laser scanner called Terrestrial LiDAR. This paper describes 3D modelling of a old architecture which was conducted using a Z-F laser system and the result of positioning analysis. Use of terrestrial laser scanner is much more efficient than existing photogrammetry in measuring and database constructing for preservation and restoration of cultural assets as well as for deformation monitoring and safety diagnosis of structures.

지상레이저 스캐너는 장비에서 발사된 레이저가 대상체에 반사되어 온 시간차를 이용하여 3차원 위치를 결정하는 장비로, 3차원 지형정보 취득 및 시설물 모델링 등 건설분야에서 다양하게 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지상레이저 스캐너의 정확도를 평가하기 위하여 건설현장에서 주로 사용되고 있는 대상체를 선정하여 관측거리와 재질별 반사각 변화에 따른 관측정확도를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 대상체의 입사각이 $90{\sim}45^{\circ}$일 경우에는 대상체 반사특성과 관측거리에 따른 오차변화가 크게 발생하지 않음을 알수 있었다. 따라서, 대상체의 재질특성에 따라 발생할 수 있는 과대오차를 보정하기 위한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Various methods have been employed for acquiring beach surface data, which are used to monitor shoreline changes due to beach erosion. This study explores the possibility of constructing and implementing a surface model of beach using data acquired with a terrestrial laser scanner and RTK-GPS. Digital images and three-dimensional data of beach areas acquired at 20 cm intervals using a laser scanner were used to create a digital surface model covered with digital image. Seven months later, the beach area was surveyed using an RTK-GPS, and another beach model was constructed using the data collected with an accuracy of 1.9 cm. The use of a terrestrial laser scanner is expected to ensure acquisition of good quality results and help deal with seasonal changes in beach areas. Because readings obtained with the RTK-GPS are dependent on the number of sampling points in beach model, difficulties are encountered when fixing the survey points. However, RTK-GPS could be used to implement a three-dimensional model by correcting the hidden parts in images obtained using a terrestrial laser scanner. Therefore, an RTK-GPS and a terrestrial laser scanner can be used in combination to obtain more precise data for the construction of beach model data.

Nowadays 3D terrestrial laser scanners record high precision three-dimensional coordinates of numerous points on an object surface in a short period of time. So terrestrial laser scanner is applied to a wide variety of fields including geodesy, and civil engineering, archaeology and architecture, and emergency service and defence, etc. This study deals with the potential application of terrestrial laser scanner in the reconnaissance surveying. The results shows that terrestrial laser scanner is possible to extract the linear features and the positioning accuracy of objects measured by total station surveying is comparative to that by terrestrial laser scanner. Thereafter, it is expected that the potential applications of terrestrial laser scanning will be more increased by combining terrestrial laser scanners with airborne LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) and photogrammetric technology.

The present study introduces a comparison between 3D R-tree and octree which are noticeable candidates to index large point clouds gathered from a 3D terrestrial laser scanner. A query method, which is to find neighboring points within given distances, was devised for the comparison, and time lapses for the query along with memory usages were checked. From tests conducted on point clouds scanned from a building and a stone pagoda, it was shown that octree has the advantage of fast generation and query while 3D R-tree is more memory-efficient. Both index and leaf capacity were revealed to be ruling factors to get the best performance of 3D R-tree, while the number of level was of oetree.
