Topcon releases latest version of powerful laser scanner software: ScanMaster 2.0

Capelle a/d IJssel, The Netherlands, September 14th, 2010, Topcon Europe Positioning B.V. has announced the release of ScanMaster 2.0 software which is “faster and more powerful than previous versions,” according to Andrew Evans, product specialist for Topcon.

“This new software saves time and increases the productivity on every job,” Evans said. ScanMaster 2.0 is currently available only in Europe.

“With laser scanning, software is the key. This latest version of Topcon’s scanning processing package ScanMaster 2.0 unlocks the chains of the post processing workflow and saves time, which is the bottom-line for any business,” Evans said.

ScanMaster 2.0 introduces many new and improved features, including:
• Superior performance – visualization and rendering billions of points with no lag.
• Automatic edge extraction
• Volume computation
• Automatic noise filtering
• Automatic scan registration
• Automatic CAD extraction direct from the cloud no mesh is required for sections, contours and profiles

Evans comments that “common laser data processes have been optimized with this software and the workflows have been simplified to ensure that the ‘thinking’ part of laser data processing is back in the hands of the operator.”

ScanMaster 2.0 comes as a free viewer module that enables instrument control, visualization and data mark-up. Evans notes, “A user can take a scanner into the field and collect data while keeping the complete version in the back-office for data-processing. The full functionality can be enabled with a security key.”

The core functionality of the software package has been enhanced and primarily features a high performance point cloud engine offering faster indexing, reduced file size, improved visual quality, clarity and rendering performance. This new feature frees up memory for the many new and improved processing algorithms, Evans said.

Evans continues, "ScanMaster 2.0 sets a new standard for software performance. Not only are expected functions such as Mesh Processing, Volumes, Planes, Regions, Cross-Sections and Visualization standard functionality, but unique edge extraction and non-surface-modelled CAD extraction offer the next level of data processing."

Evans said "Combined with the GLS-1500, ScanMaster 2.0 provides the power and functionality to create the easiest and most productive terrestrial scanning system available.”
