Laser Scanning for Collision Investigation Laser scanning on busy roads
Jun 30

Small size, big performance
The GLS-1500 is a robust scanner that captures data at 30,000 points per second at a range of 500 ft. (150m) to a typical surface, and with an extended range to 1100 ft. (330m) for more reflective surfaces. Unique to Topcon’s GLS-1500 is the mechanical ability to select from multiple lens arrays to control the laser beam. This provides consistent 0.16 in. (4mm) accuracy throughout the range from 3 ft. to 500 ft. (1m to 150m).

  • Onboard control means that the workflow in the field is significantly smoother without the need for a laptop (although of course the SD data card can be quickly downloaded for data QA).
  • Internal batteries mean that no heavy external batteries are needed (up to 5 hours scanning on one charge).
  • Eye-safe class 1 laser beam (invisible).
  • PST (precise scan technology) means very clean, accurate data with minimal ranging errors.
  • Unique ability to input, occupy and back-sight known real world coordinates on board and scan a BS target from known OBS
