Mobile 3D Mapping System (3D-TWINMAP)

GENERAL INFORMATION

Description and purpose of the Research Infrastructure

The specific infrastructure was acquired through the project 3D Mobile Mapping for Digital Twin Development (3D-TWINMAP) that aims to establish a state-of-the-art mobile 3D mapping capability within the ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence (ECoE) to support the creation and use of Digital Twins in Cyprus. The project focused on the acquisition and operational deployment of a high-precision, AI-powered mobile mapping system capable of rapidly capturing dense 3D geospatial data across large-scale built environments.

The Project OPEN INFRA/0625/0016 is funded by the European Union Recovery and Resilience Facility of the NextGenerationEU instrument, through the Research and Innovation Foundation.
