Precision spatial tools aid research
Geology researchers to benefit
The Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Institute of Geology has equipped their with a Maptek I-Site 8820 laser scanner.
The I-Site laser scanner will be used by the institute to strengthen research in a number of key areas. In particular, the focus will be on evaluation of erosion and accumulation in riverbeds, slope change detection as a consequence of mass wasting processes, and estimation of resulting soil loss.
The operational capabilities and precision of the I-Site 8820 laser scanner appealed to researchers at the institute. Professor Miguel Castillo explains, ‘The broad scanning range of the I-Site 8820 provides us with a comprehensive system to cover all aspects of our research. We required a laser scanner that could capture vast areas of square kilometres as well as data for small-scale studies at the square centimetre level.’
