This video goes through the process for adjusting RD-M1 data by using Detect Intersections and Close Loops (also referred to as SLAM). We start with the trajectory and scan already processed and end ready to create and filter the point cloud.

This video goes through the process for adjusting RD-M1 data by using Single Pass GCP adjustment to remove horizontal and vertical varience from the data. This requires stripping or targets that can be identified in each pass of the scan. We start with the trajectory and scan already processed and end ready to create and filter the point cloud.

This video will take you through the process of connecting and updating firmware for the RD-M1 using RD-M1 Collect software.

The new Download Maps feature allows for pre-loading map files so the background map will display the current location without the need for an active internet connection during a collection run.

The new Route Planning feature allows the use of a path created in Google Earth to be displayed during collection. Simply create a path in Google Earth, save it as a KML file, and referrence the file in RD-M1 Collect.

The new Runs Manager allows users to manage their run data all from one simple interface. The window has large touchscreen friendly buttons to add and remove runs from the active list as well as copy to an external drive or delete the files completely from within RD-M1 Collect.
