Evaluating LiDAR technology for 3D data acquisition in forensic anthropology: A comparative field study of two systems

In forensic anthropology, the acquisition of rapid and precise contextual data from field sites is a critical, yet too often underemphasized, task in France. Forensic anthropologists, who are rarely called to the scene of skeletal discoveries, often lack the detailed contextual information necessary for conducting thorough analyses in the laboratory. This study aims to demonstrate the potential of LiDAR technology for time-saving scene documentation by comparing two 3D ∞scanning tools used i...
