Topic: From Control to Capture: Applying SLAM-based Mobile Mapping in Modern Survey Workflows
Presenter: Frank J. Hahnel, III
About this session:
This session will explore the practical applications of SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology in modern surveying workflows. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how SLAM-based mobile mapping systems operate, including their strengths, limitations, and ideal use cases compared to traditional terrestrial laser scanning and conventional survey methods.
The presentation will also cover field deployment strategies, control integration considerations, accuracy expectations, and data validation techniques. Through real-world project examples, participants will see how SLAM can be applied to topographic surveys, infrastructure mapping, and rapid site documentation; providing a solid technical framework for evaluating when and how to incorporate SLAM into existing workflows.
