Shawnee police officers’ investigations of crashes and crime scenes just got more detailed and more than twice as efficient.
The 3D Scanner software produces a detailed and scaled map of a crash or crime scene, including a 360-degree perspective, according to Shawnee city records.
One officer utilizing a 3D Laser Scanner can record a scene in about 60 percent of the time required by four officers using a Total Station, the Shawnee Police Department’s current device. In fact, the city’s traffic safety unit recommended purchasing the FARO 3D Laser Scanner because it can record and measure a 150-meter area in roughly seven minutes.
Mayor Michelle Distler approved the purchase during the Monday council meeting.
