Preliminary Application of Terrestrial 3D LiDar in Corridor Defects Detection of Overhead Transmission Lines

Abstract

Based on a brief introduction of the operational principle of terrestrial 3D LiDar, this paper describes some typical defects detection methods of security distance in the overhead transmission line with living examples. These tests are realized by the Z+F Imager 5010 terrestrial 3D LiDar and Polyworks. The research results show that terrestrial LiDar technology can achieve the defect evaluation of defect detection of security distance in the overhead transmission lines. And this technology has many advantages, such as portable, security, intuitive and high precision.
