Open house today at @fgi_nls #Nummela standard baseline. For the 17th time measured this autumn using the Väisälä comparator, based on white light interferometry. Still the most accurate distance measurement method in the world since the 1940s. #geodesy #metrology @Maanmittaus

We studied how mobile #laserscanning can be used to map #railway tracks. The method significantly improved accuracy and can be used to monitor changes in the rails, such as track subsidence, enhancing railway safety. Full article👉 sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #remotesensing
