General Information

RiSCAN PRO is the companion software for RIEGL Terrestrial 3D Laser Scanner Systems. RiSCAN PRO is project orientated, i. e., the entire data acquired during a measurement campaign are organized and stored in RiSCAN PRO's project structure. These data include scans, finescans, digital images, GPS data, coordinates of control points and tie points, and all transformation matrices necessary to transform the data of multiple scans into a common well-defined coordinate system.

RiSCAN PRO is designed to optimize the acquisition workflow in the field and provides the tools for visual inspection of overall completeness of data coverage in 3D right after acquisition. In addition to data acquisition it provides a variety of functions for data processing.

RiSCAN PRO is to be licensed on three different levels:

Viewer License (free):
Basic visualization and viewing functions

Acquisition License:
All necessary functions for data acquisition,
global registration, visualization and pointcloud processing

Processing License:
Pointcloud processing functions as well as advanced meshing,
texturing, evaluation and exploring functions.

The design of RiSCAN PRO's project structure enables smooth data transfer to numerous third party post-processing packages. The XML-based project file structure is published and well-documented thus enabling open access to all project information in an easy way. By using the optional RiSCANLib all scan data can be accessed also in a convenient way.

For detailed information see RiSCAN PRO's online help manual.
