Out of the Dark

Cyrax Used to Create 3D Maps of Oregon Caves
 
Coming Out of the Dark! The Point of Begining article "Out of the Dark Ages: New laser technology brings cave mapping into the 21st century," by Beth Wierzbinski St. Amand was published in July 1999. This article looks into the new technology that is revolutionizing cave measurement, namely 3D laser scanning or High-Definition Surveying, and also acts as a case study on a project done in the Oregon Caves.
