StreetMapper Passes the Test|
“For years we have been anticipating this technology in hopes that it could collect high accuracy pavement data, allowing us to remove one of the riskiest tasks from our work.The test area was designed for anyone working on mobile laser scanning to have an area to evaluate their systems and supports other projects we are working on to advance developments in mobile laser scanning technology.”

- Dave Olander, Field Survey Officer for Caltrans

The Caltrans test area covers a half-mile stretch of High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane highway in San Diego. The route was originally selected as it was accessible to field crews to establish the control points and offered a variety of traffic conditions to ‘test’ the mobile mapping systems performance in real world conditions. The route also had changes in elevation and obstructions (signs and overpass) to further challenge the systems. A two-lane section of the highway was measured by Caltrans using calibrated, high accuracy surveying equipment and techniques in order to establish the 1,500 plus control points.   Read more...
