Abstract

Nowadays, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is a standard industry method for data acquisition in building modelling. However, terrestrial laser scanning in stand-still mode and occlusion posed by the environment make TLS time-consuming. Mobile indoor mapping systems speed up the scanning procedure and handle the occlusion problem. Here, a performance assessment of a state-of-the-art mobile indoor mapping system (NavVis VLX 2) is presented and compared to a terrestrial laser scanner (Z+F Imager 5016) for building documentation in a complex indoor environment. The assessment focuses on the representation of geometry of the scanned environment. The results show that the mobile mapping system NavVis VLX 2 is promising in these surroundings, with accuracies up to 2.5 cm and a low noise level.
