Description

This work consisted in the generation of a georeferenced, 3D point-cloud model of Statesboro Bulloch County Park (16.1 acres), in Georgia, via laser scanning. The above authors, all graduate students in the Civil Engineering program at Georgia Southern University, completed it in Fall 2019. They used an accurate Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) device to georeference the resulting final model into the Georgia East, State Plane Coordinate System. This complements a larger hydrologic model of the entire basin of the City of Statesboro. EMC Engineering Services, is one of the companies involved in that larger basin model. Civil Engineer Jeremy Hart, from EMC, indicated that the scope of the work originally included a topographic survey of the mentioned park area, but was removed due to City budget restraints. Therefore, the model of the park area was completed by students as a service-learning activity and donated to the City of Statesboro.
