WITH ONLINE WAVEFORM PROCESSING
3D Ultra Long Range Terrestrial Laser Scanner
RIEGL's unique V-Line technology is based on echo digitization and online waveform processing, which means that the VZ-6000 operates even in poor visibility and demanding multi target situations caused by dust, haze, rain, snow. Due to its laser wavelength the instrument is exceptionally well-suited for measuring snowy and icy terrain.
For operating the scanner and for data processing, RIEGL offers the well established software package RiSCAN PRO. Different license levels and plugin module licenses allow an adaption to the user specific requirements
