Mounted to a vehicle, Woods’ Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) system collects up to one million data points per second while in motion—eliminating the need for road closures or disruptive fieldwork. A high-accuracy GNSS and IMU system tracks the vehicle’s trajectory, while simultaneous laser scanning and panoramic imaging deliver a dense, geo-referenced point cloud enriched with street-level visuals.
The result is an immersive 3D digital environment that enables faster, safer, and more cost-effective mapping for transport assets and corridors.
Woods Mobile Laser Scanning delivers:
Survey-grade precision with rapid capture speeds
No traffic disruption—data collected on the move
Panoramic imagery overlaid onto 3D point clouds
Ideal for constrained or high-risk environments
Faster modelling and visualisation workflows
Using Mobile Laser Scanning, Woods enables smarter transport infrastructure planning and management—with greater safety, fewer delays, and better data from the start.
The combination of accuracy, speed, and depth makes Mobile Laser Scanning an ideal solution for complex transport, infrastructure, and asset mapping projects—especially where minimising disruption and maximising data density are critical.
Mobile Laser Scanning applications include:
Urban and rural transport corridor mapping
Asset inventory and condition assessment
Road and rail clearance analysis
Construction tracking and as-built validation
Flood and terrain modelling
Deformation monitoring for pavements and embankments
