- Statement
- The data have been generated using a terrestrial laser scanner (Faro Focus X330). The laser scanner is in a fixed position above the experimental area. Seven targets (coordinates known) are erected in the area. Each scan is therefore reoriented using the location of the target, using the Faro software (Scene). We only accept scans with a re-orientation error lower than 0.5 mm. If the error is higher, we redo the scan. The duration of a scan is about 10 minutes and the time between each scan depends on the experimental conditions (the exact duration between each scan can be found in the experimental data file). Once the scan has been reoriented, we pre-process it using CloudCompare to select only the experimental area (remove the wall and instrument), we then convert this into a tiff file to analyse with python. The scanner can’t see the surface under water, consequently we have to ensure that the experimental area is dry before we start scanning. If the surface is not dry the scan returns NaN values.
