Abstract
A method and system for scanning and measuring an environment is provided. The method includes providing a three-dimensional (3D) measurement device. The 3D measurement device being operable in a helical mode or a compound mode, wherein a plurality of light beams are emitted along a first path defined by a first axis and a second axis in the compound mode and along a second path defined by the first axis in the helical mode. A mobile platform holding the 3D measurement device is moved from a first position. A first group of 3D coordinates of the area is acquired by the 3D measurement device when the mobile platform is moving. A second group of 3D coordinates of the area is acquired with a second 3D measurement device that with six-degrees of freedom (6DOF). The first group of 3D coordinates is registered based on the third group of 3D coordinates.
