FARO has announced an extended partnership with Siteco Informatica to bring affordable mobile mapping, using FARO Focus^3D Laser Scanners, to users worldwide.

This partnership pairs FARO’s worldwide sales network with Siteco’s technical expertise in mobile mapping systems to launch the new Road-Scanner C “Compact Edition”. Under this partnership arrangement, FARO will provide a global sales network to market the Road-Scanner C and Siteco will sell, install and support the systems.

The Road-Scanner C is a state-of-the-art system that is more flexible than competitive systems and priced to appeal to a broad market of users who need to capture existing infrastructure for applications such as utility pole location, electric transmission and distribution lines, etc.

The system is equipped with two FARO Focus^3D Laser Scanners, a 30 megapixel 360° spherical camera and Siteco software. The flexibility to detach the Focus^3D Laser Scanners and use them independently as stand-alone laser scanners sets this solution apart from conventional mobile mapping systems and greatly improves the ROI for customers.
