The Mobile Mapping System is a hardware-software solution for gathering, processing and distributing 3D spatial data, in form of 3D maps. The Institute in implementation of following projects uses current version of the system:
Testing a mobile system for supporting spatial design (No.: LIDER/036/659/L-4/12/NCBR/2013)
FP7. ICARUS ”Integrated Components for Assisted Rescue and Unmanned Search oper
ations”. Platform
The Robotics platform is a Husky A 200 (clear path robotics), equipped with a 3D Z+F Imager 5010 laser measurement system. Server
The data gathered by the Platform are processed and distributed by NVIDIA GRID compatible server with CITRIX. It is using the current version Supermicro RZ-1240i NVK2 model. The server provides computation power necessary for matching scans and visualising them for multiple users (Software as a Service Model). Scanning
The deployment time of the unit is 15 minutes in average. In one session, up to 30 scans can be gathered. The scans then merged into a global map by using 6DSLAM algorithm. Maps
The final result is 3D metric maps of global accuracy down to 5 cm. The maps are distributed from the server in form of data of direct rendering. Such maps are useful information for Search and Rescue mission. On behalf of the MSAS IMM team,
