3D Digital Documentation of Historic Launch Complex Structures at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS): A Workflow Methodology for DoD Cultural Resources

Author(s): Jorge Gonzalez; Lori Collins; Steven Fernandez; Travis Doering

Year: 2015

Summary

This project was undertaken to provide baseline terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) survey and spatial recordation for six historic launch complexes. Select structures were chosen for 3D laser scan survey, and these data were brought together with aerial Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS applications in a digital platform for landscape and structure consideration. The project was performed in combination with Global Positioning Systems (GPS), videography, and imaging documentation, with the 3D terrestrial laser scanning providing the referent data for the derived 3D Computer Assisted Drawing (CAD) products and archival as-is conditional reference. THis report presents the methodology and results of the project.
