Primary Investigations along with out sister company Delta
Land Surveying are experts in accurately measuring and
mapping accident sites.
Larry W. Busby is the owner of Delta Land Surveying,
established in 1996, and is a Registered Professional Land
Surveyor licensed in Texas, New Mexico, Colorado and
Oklahoma and is also a Certified Federal Surveyor. These
qualifications allow not only for accurate accident site
mapping with total stations, GPS and a High Dynamic Range
3D Laser Scanner but provide expertise in reviewing the
procedures and data collected by the police and/or other
experts.
ELEMENTS OF ACCIDENT SITE MAPPING MAY INCLUDE:
•
Collecting additional data not collected by the police
and/or other experts such as sight obstructions, traffic
signs, artificial lighting and lane markings.
•
Creating scale maps for presentation in court or during
arbitration, mediation and depositions.
•
Establishing right-of-way and sight easement lines.
•
Determining the grades and slopes of the accident
scene.
•
Creating 3D animations of the accident reconstruction
from laser scanned point clouds.
HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE 3D LASER SCANNING:
Primary Investigations is one of the few accident
reconstruction firms in Texas to offer reconstructions based
on data (point clouds) collected with an HDR Laser Scanner. A
HDR Laser Scanner collects literally millions of data points
during a scan and each point has a specific coordinate with
allows measurements to be derived between points with a
2mm accuracy +/-. Additionally all of these points are
combined into a “point cloud” from which 3D models can be
created of the accident scene and vehicles. The 3D virtual
models are then used to create realistic video animations of
the accident.
