Laser scanning solutions
Acquisition of a laser scanner
Nordic Geo Center Oy (Ltd) is a Finnish, family owned reseller of geospational surveying instruments. The company is founded in 2005, but the experience of our personnel goes back several decades covering a range of various surveying instruments. From the point of view of geospatial surveying, the basic aims and questions have remained more or less the same even though the surveying instruments have changed.
Our personnel have been involved in airborne laser scanning since mid-1990s and with terrestrial instruments since 1999. We have also been involved with IMU technology since 1980s.
For reselling surveying instruments, our business area covers Finland, Estonia and Sweden.
For training and testing purposes, we can work on all continents. Our personnel have scanned for example paper mills in Europe and China; cultural heritage in Italy. In Finland we have tested scanning with our customers in various fields including construction, forestry, mining and other industries.
For the last few years we have been heavily involved in developing road scanning with RIEGL VMX scanners. As a result, we can now train our customers to process the typical road parameters from the VMX data with comparable results to the traditional road survey vehicles. Our results have also been subjected to testing conducted by the road authorities in both Finland and Sweden. Please do not hesitate to contact us for more information.
