. In this study, Leica C10 terrestrial laser scanner was used to collect 3D data of the assets inside a computer laboratory. The laser scanner device is able to capture 3D point cloud data with high speed and high accuracy. A series of point clouds was produced from the laser scanner. However, more attention must

Geo-3D Inc., a Montreal based company (Canada), offers software products and services for geomatics and GIS data collection using advanced terrestrial photogrammetric techniques. The company’s products provide a mobile mapping solution integrating different sensors such as digital camera(s), GPS

Issues relating to resource use in terrestrial and marine realms are clearly central to sustainable develop-ment. Used correctly, spatial planning, protected areas and international site designations are all tools that can contribute to the protection of livelihoods and the environment, whilst

) that can deploy elastically-scalable computing infrastructure anywhere, at any time. This airborne compute cloud— essentially, micro-data centers hosted on UAVs—would communicate with terrestrial assets over a bandwidth-constrained wireless network with variable, unpredictable link qualities. Achieving

-wildlife conflicts, evidence from the field suggests otherwise. For reasons beyond the control of the park, the prevailing compensatory mechanisms are hardly adequate in cushioning victims against damages to properties and assets. This study thus, provides partial support to conservation’s poverty reduction claims

animals (the ‘‘water web’’). Naturally occurring, nonradioactive isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in water provide a potential method for tracing water sources. However, using this approach for terrestrial animals is complicated by a change in water isotopes within the body due to differences in activity

Abstract—This paper describes the infrastructure and protocols necessary to enable near-real-time commanding, access to space-based assets, and the secure interoperation between sensor webs owned and controlled by various entities. Select terrestrial and aeronautics-base sensor webs will be used

precisely map buried assets (gas pipes, telecom cables, etc) and increase the efficiency of the process in challenging environments such as in urban canyons, where GPS fails to work or is not reliable enough to get a precise position. In this context the Institute of Engineering Surveying and Space
