1261653 MattioliThis EAR/Instrumentation and Facilities Program grant supports acquisition of two terrestrial laser scanners (TLS) and associated digital photography equipment to be incorporated into a current pool of five UNAVCO facility TLS system available for loan to the broader geoscience community. The TLS system will support research and research training that requires the capability to rapidly map the surface topography of landforms, structure and vegetation with high spatial resolution (mm) in a well constrained positional reference frame. The TLS systems will be available to support a wide range of geoscience and broader applications including studies of transient surface features (e.g, landslides), barrier beach processes, studies of earthquake rupture geometry and processes; volcanic deformation, bridge deformation in response to dynamic earth processes, tsunami generated landforms and related features, glacier topography, geological outcrop mapping, archaeological mapping and plant ecology. The instruments will: 1) replace an aged and recently retired TLS system originally purchased with support from by OPP for polar project deployments; and 2) augment the current TLS pool with new technologies and a variety of new capabilities including longer range, full waveform digitization and more rapid scanning rates. The systems will support geoscience education through incorporation into field camp exercises using TLS. ***

1261653 Mattiolithis耳/仪器设施计划赠款支持收购两架陆地激光扫描仪（TLS）和相关的数字摄影设备，该设备将纳入当前五个UNAVCO设施TLS系统的池中，可用于贷款，以借给更广泛的地球科学社区。 TLS系统将支持研究和研究培训，需要在良好约束的位置参考框架中快速绘制具有高空间分辨率（MM）的地面，结构和植被的表面地形。 TLS系统将用于支持广泛的地球科学和更广泛的应用，包括瞬态表面特征（例如，滑坡），屏障海滩工艺，地震破裂的几何形状和过程的研究；火山变形，对动态地球工艺的响应，海啸产生了地形和相关特征，冰川地形，地质露头映射，考古图和植物生态学。 这些工具将：1）替换最初在OPP支持Polar Project Project部署的支持下购买的老年且最近退休的TLS系统； 2）通过新技术和各种新功能（包括更长的范围，完整波形数字化和更快的扫描速率）增强当前的TLS池。 该系统将通过使用TLS纳入现场营练习来支持地球科学教育。 ***
