About:
The Carlson Scan2K is a high performance scalable laser scanning system, and one of the most versatile terrestrial scanners currently on the market. Carlson Scan2K was built with surveyors specifically in mind, but has many other field uses. Whether you are using it on a tripod or a moving platform you will receive outstanding performance results. Carlson Software designed the Scan2k to bridge the gap between small short range sensors and large, long range pulse time. With long range survey grade execution in the field up to 2,000 meters, it is one of the longer-range capable scanners on the market. Scan2K uses a total station-like workflow which has been expertly designed to shorten processing times and improve your teams productivity.

We’re not the only ones raving about the Scan2K, Geoweek News shares:
“Each of these scanning modes offers a different associated scan rate: a short-range mode (up to 250m) with 500 KHz points per second; a medium-range mode (up to 750m) with 200 KHz points per second; and a long-range mode (up to 2000m) with 50 KHz points per second. In addition to the variable range modes, the Scan2K also records four returns per pulse, which enables conducting “bare earth” filtering to help remove vegetation from scans among other things, such as dust penetration and such.Another unique aspect of Scan2K is the ability to have a variable vertical field of view. The scanner’s maximum vertical field of view is 120° and the system will pulse at the range mode selected over that vertical field of view. When the Vertical Field of View is narrowed, the scanner will in turn pulse over that narrowed vertical field of view and thus collect more data in that smaller area. It is not masked like in other scanners that don’t have this capability.” - Eric van Rees from Geo Week News
