VZ-6000 3D Ultra Long Range Terrestrial Laser Scanner

The NEW high speed, high resolution terrestrial 3D Laser Scanner VZ-6000 offers an extremely long measurement range of more than 6000 m for topographic (static) applications. Being the Laser Class 3B companion to the VZ-4000, it is, due to its laser wavelength, exceptionally well suited for measuring snowy and icy terrain in glacier mapping and monitoring applications in mountainous regions.

The RIEGL VZ-6000 is compatible with the well-proven RIEGL software package RiSCAN PRO for terrestrial laser scanning, RIEGL's interface library RiVLiB, as well as the workflow-optimizing software packages RiMONITOR and RiMINING. The software plugin RiMTA-3D provides automatic assignment of the correct MTA zones in multiple time around processing.

Modes of Operation

  • Stand-alone operation with integrated graphical user interface via 7" touchscreen
  • Remote control via VNC Viewer with any standard tablet PC or other mobile device via WiFi
  • Remote operation with RiSCAN PRO on a notebook via LAN or WiFi connection
  • Customized operation by third party tools / applications based on RIEGL's well documented interfaces and scanner libraries, e.g. RiVLib

1 With Online Waveform processing - Rounded Values 
2 With Online Waveform processing - Rounded Values 
3 With Online Waveform processing - Typical values for average conditions. Maximum range is specified for flat targets with size in excess of the laser beam diameter, perpendicular angle of incidence, and for atmospheric visibility in excess of 23 km. In bright sunlight, the operational range is considerably shorter than under an overcast sky.
