5 Operation

This section provides operating instructions for conducting surveys, generating reports, and

recharging the batteries. Before starting survey, the needs to determine the area to be

surveyed and how that area will be covered. Typically, there are two types of surveys that are

conducted: a single line survey that produces a cross section view, or a multi-line survey that

produces a 3D view. Surveys consist of one or more straight-line scans. The surface surface to

be scanned should be clean and dry.
