Terrestrial mobile mapping systems

Mobile mapping systems allow the capture of geospatial data by one or more moving sensors. They are classified as airborne, terrestrial or portable, depending on their platform, and necessarily have positioning and navigation components, as well as registration and synchronization. In general, most systems consist of four main elements: an integration platform, a central computer that acts as the brain of the system, a power supply and an installation structure, which provides the physical support necessary to mount the integration platform to the vehicle. Analyzing these components, we studied the equipment released for sale from 2017 to the present, their standardized workflow and which quality measures could ensure compliance with the specifications of a project's specifications.From their conception to their introduction in the geospatial industry, these systems have been employed in the documentation of urban areas due to the high efficiency and speed they provide for massive data capture.
