SCANNING DEVICE FOR SCANNING AN ENVIRONMENT AND ENABLING AN IDENTIFICATION OF SCANNED MOVING OBJECTS

The present invention relates to a scanning device being configured to enable efficient identification of scanned measurement points being associated with moving objects in an otherwise static environment. The scanning device is built as total station or laser scanner being typically used for scanning an environment and enabling, based on the scanning, the generation of a three dimensional (3D) point cloud representing the scanned environment.
