Topics covered will include lasers scanners, terrestrial photogrammetry and angle sensing range-finding technology. The paper will compare the performance of several instruments in an actual underground trial. }, doi={10.36487/ACG_rep/1002_23_Loncaric}, url={https://papers.acg.uwa.edu.au/p/1002_23_Loncaric/} }
