Understanding Mobile Mapping
TBC provides the ability to manage mobile mapping data acquired with a Trimble mobile mapping system, which provides a fast and cost-effective way to manage assets such as bridges, buildings, roads, highways, and power stations, and document site conditions with georeferenced images.
A Trimble MX7 mobile imaging system includes a light GNSS-enabled, six-camera instrument (while a Trimble MX9, MX50, MX60 or MX90 mobile laser mapping system consists of two high-end laser scanners, and a 360° camera (and three oblique cameras for an MX9 orMX90, two for an MX60, and only one for an MX50) that is mounted on a vehicle. As the vehicle moves along a roadway, the system uses Trimble Mobile Imaging (TMI) software to capture images and positions at predetermined intervals. Users can then Trimble Trident software to process and analyze the field data in the office. The resulting data set typically includes a large number of panoramic images, GPS positions, and IMU orientations.
TBC enables you to do the following:
- Import, view and process the data.
- Navigate along the acquired runs (trajectories) and view the panoramas in all directions.
- Calibrate or check your system calibration.
- Register the data.
- Take measurement using the Picker tools.
- Export the mobile mapping panorama, image and trajectory data.
