Mapping Where GPS Can’t Reach: Autonomous Lidar Capture in Underground and Indoor Environments

Mines, tunnels, stopes and other underground or indoor spaces are among the most difficult places to capture accurate data: there is no GPS signal, conditions can be hazardous and access for people is often limited. This session explains how autonomous lidar mapping systems collect high-quality 3D data in these settings, with real-world examples from mining and critical infrastructure.
