1.2 Field Notes
Field notes are created to document a rough plan of the area being scanned, scanner placement,
target placement and any other information that will be useful for reference to how the project
was carried out. The information that is documented in field notes is an invaluable reference for
all involved in a scan project.
Field notes should include at least:
•
a plan sketch with a rough placement of buildings/structures
•
scan positions
•
target locations
Take a look onto the CAD drawing to have an overview of the whole scanning field and the
situation.
Figure 2 shows a CAD drawing which is a result from the field note sketch. We will use this as an
orientation plan for the project in this module.
