3d mapping using light detection and ranging

This paper presents a simple and cost-effective 3-dimensional (3D) mapping of internal structures using Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR). LIDAR is being controlled in such a way to measures the distance and angles from both servo motors simultaneously on which LIDAR is mounted. These values help to calculate and draw a 3D image of the internal structure.3D mapping using photogrammetry technique is very sophisticated, time-consuming and costly. The accuracy in photogrammetry process is not acceptable in some cases. 3D mapping provides a very realistic view that enhances the visualization. It has many applications in the field of research, survey, and engineering.
