The wider utilization of this technology underground is in
cave rooms, not only in the Czech Republic, but also abroad. Considering its use in underground mining, as well as
geotechnical and geological practice, this technology may find
a wider application to solve the following tasks e capture the
course of underground mining works and create as-built
documentation, assess stability conditions of mining workplaces, monitoring of deformation and convergence, implementation of large volumetric calculations of various
characters, extension of evidence (e.g. accidents, damages),
use in the design activities, basis for construction and reconstruction activities, collision awareness, mine site protection
etc. Scanning costs are variable, cannot be accurately quantified and depends on the specific type of project. The purchase price of the device and the corresponding software
(from 30 000 up to 100 000 EUR) plays a crucial role.
