The Trimble GEDO Rec-Scan system consists of the Trimble GEDO CE 2.0 track measurement trolley with a Trimble control unit in combination with a laser scanner and a Trimble total station.
The system adds a laser scanner to a Trimble GEDO Rec geodetic system with a Trimble total station or Trimble GNSS receiver. An absolutely referenced three-dimensional point cloud is generated, which can be used for as-built data collection for the design and construction phases, and for clearance analysis in tunnels or at any narrow points.
The system can be used in combination with the Trimble GEDO GX50 as well as with classic terrestrial laser scanners, such as Trimble TX6 and TX8, or Faro Focus S70A.
GEDO Rec
- Control of geodetic track survey
- Synchronization with GEDO Scan measurements
- Capturing of absolute track position with track gauge, superelevation (cant) and twist
GEDO Scan
- Control of the kinematic capture of laser scan data in conjunction with track gauge, cant (superelevation ), twist and chainage information
- Live view of the current profile and clearance check in real-time (depending on laser scanner model used)
GEDO Office
- Analysis and further processing of GEDO Rec measurements
- Station setups and measurement data can be re-calculated in case control point coordinates have changed
- Track sections taken from different station setups are merged into one resulting track
- Variance comparison between measured track and design alignment
- Quality reports for track position
- Comparison of measurements from different epochs for track monitoring purposes
GEDO Scan Office
- Pre-processing and visualization of three-dimensional point cloud data captured in the field
- Generation of an absolute referenced three-dimensional point cloud
- Track specific analysis of point cloud data
- Measurement of object distances relative to the track centerline
- Clearance analysis with static or dynamic clearance profiles as well as wagon models
- Neighboring track detection for tracks visible in the scan
- Overhead line detection and distance measurement
- Registration of points and lines directly from the point cloud
- Generation and vectorization of cross sections with DXF output
- Additional modules (i.e. WinLUE, Clearroute, Banedanmark) for clearance analysis according to track infrastructure operator requirements.
- Use of a universal track measurement trolley with modular expansion options
