摘要：During the last years terrestrial laser scanning became a standard method of data acquisition for various applications in close range domain, like industrial production, forest inventories, plant engineering and construction, car navigation and – one of the most important fields – the recording and modelling of buildings. To use laser scanning data in an adequate way, a quality assessment of the laser scanner is inevitable. In the literature some publications can be found concerning the data quality of terrestrial laser scanners. Most of these papers concentrate on the geometrical accuracy of the scanner (errors of instrument axis, range accuracy using target etc.). In this paper a special aspect of quality assessment will be discussed: the influence of different materials and object colours on the recorded measurements of a TLS. The effects on the geometric accuracy as well as on the simultaneously acquired intensity values are the topics of our investigations. A TRIMBLE GX scanner was used for several test series. The study of different effects refer to materials commonly used at building fa.ades, i.e. grey scaled and coloured sheets, various species of wood, a metal plate, plasters of different particle size, light-transmissive slides and surfaces of different conditions of wetness. The tests concerning a grey wedge show a dependence on the brightness where the mean square error (MSE) decrease from black to white, and therefore, confirm previous results of other research groups. Similar results had been obtained with coloured sheets. In this context an important result is that the accuracy of measurements at night-time has proved to be much better than at day time. While different species of wood and different conditions of wetness have no significant effect on the range accuracy the study of a metal plate delivers MSE values considerably higher than the accuracy of the scanner, if the angle of incidence is approximately orthogonal. Also light-transmissive slides cause enormous MSE values. It can be concluded that high precision measurements should be carried out at night-time and preferable on bright surfaces without specular characteristics
