Earthwork volume caculation refers to the engineering volume of excavation, landfill, transportation, stacking, and other operations of earth and rock in construction, road, water conservancy, mining, and other projects. The size of the earthwork is directly related to the investment and progress of the project. Therefore, accurate calculation of earthwork has become an important link in engineering design and construction. There are many traditional earthwork calculation methods, including cross-section method, grid method, contour line method, etc., but these methods require manual measurement and drawing, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and are prone to errors and omissions. With the advancement of science and technology, the use of lidar scanning and processing technology for 3D reconstruction and analysis provides a more efficient and economical technical path for earthwork calculation.

SLAM(Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is an innovative technology that has revolutionized the way we capture and analyze spatial data. This handheld device is equipped with a lidar scanner, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It uses laser beams to measure distances and create detailed 3D maps of the surrounding environment.

The workshop transformation display showcases the capabilities of the Slam100 Handheld Mobile Lidar scanner and how it can be used in various industries. The display is divided into different sections, each highlighting a specific application of the technology.

With the rapid development of cities, urban power supply systems continue to grow at a relatively rapid rate, and the mileage of overhead transmission lines continues to increase, posing greater challenges to line operation and maintenance. Traditional manual inspections mainly rely on manual on-site inspections, with heavy tasks and low efficiency. Especially in urban areas with complex scenes, the efficiency and accuracy are not ideal. UAV airborne LiDAR inspection is very mature for transmission line inspection. Through the integrated process of on-site line inspection, data processing and analysis, rapid identification of line defects can be realized.
However, there are large environmental differences between urban areas and areas such as mountains and hills. Urban areas are densely populated with people and buildings, and transmission lines and surrounding landforms form a complex interlaced situation, which poses a serious threat to the flight safety of drones. For the inspection of power transmission lines in urban areas, the mobile lidar backpack platform S-PACK100 combined with SLAM100 can adapt to the intricate work scenes in urban areas. Collectors carry S-PACK100 on their backs and walk along the line at a normal pace to realize digital scanning of transmission lines at close range.

With the continuous transformation and upgrading of my country's "digital city" to "smart city", GIS applications based on two-dimensional vector data have been difficult to meet the needs of urban intelligent management. The important construction task of national basic surveying and mapping during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the urban 3D platform can provide the city's 3D base for the comprehensive management of natural resources and smart city management, and provide basic data and information for urban planning, management, fire protection, emergency response, ecological environment monitoring, etc. management platform. Therefore, how to quickly and accurately obtain 3D data in geographic space has become an important support for the 3D construction of real China. UAV oblique photogrammetry has become an important way to obtain oblique photography data due to its efficient and flexible data acquisition capabilities.

With the rapid development of the national economy, the number of storage tanks continues to increase, and has become a major basic key equipment for oil and gas resources and chemical material storage. At the same time, storage tanks are also developing towards larger sizes, which puts forward higher requirements for tank volume measurement in storage and transportation projects. At present, commonly used measurement methods at home and abroad include the girth method, the optical reference line method, the optical measurement method with guide rails, and the three-dimensional laser scanning measurement method. Station scanner, this kind of instrument has the advantages of high precision, high density, and long distance measurement, but it also has problems such as low efficiency, frequent station changes, and large amount of splicing in the office.

Slam100 can reproduce a forest farm base in a real scene. The forest base is right on the edge of the no-fly zone and cannot use drones for aerial modeling. So Slam100 came in handy. 
From the video, we can see the upper part is the 3D point cloud real scene effect and the lower part is the 3D model drawn based on the point cloud. The 3D scene display effect after reverse modeling based on the SLAM point cloud data. You can carry out follow-up planning and construction, sunshine analysis, and other work on this model.
