X9 Interviews To Be Next Trimble Scanner
We found some footage last week of a historic moment, when the X9 interviewed for the new position in our #scanning portfolio. Before the interview, the X9 graduated at the top of its class at prestigious testing campuses, including Jena, Paris and Westminster, pulling countless all-nighters and studying for endless hours. Out of all the qualified candidates we interviewed, the X9 was the clear choice. Welcome to the team, Trimble X9.

Point Cloud Scale Factors - When Theory Meets Practice in TBC
It’s the best of times thanks to all sorts of instruments we have for surveying and construction. It is the worst of times because we need a solution to align all the data together. In this TBC Power Hour recording, Richard Hassler and Joe Blecha teach you how TBC integrates scanning data and conventional surveying data, delivering consistent results.
If you ever wondered why your point cloud doesn’t match with the ground control points, why it’s meters off from the supposed position, or how to transfer data in between different scanning software packages, listen and find answers in the episode.
Listeners will learn:
-The root cause of the misalignment between scanning data and surveying data
- Scale Factors
-The unique TBC solution of solving the misalignment
-How to properly georeference a terrestrial scan data into the correct projection
-How to integrate UAS data with an SX10 project
-The export configurations to transfer the point cloud to other application packages
