Maptek 3D scanning technology used in deep underground lab

Maptek I-Site laser scanning expertise and software technology is being used to map the geology and layout of the deepest underground laboratory to be established in the U.S. The Deep Underground Science and Engineering Lab (DUSEL) in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead, SD, will provide for scientific studies in particle and nuclear physics, geology, hydrology, geo-engineering, biology and biochemistry. The project, funded by the National Science Foun¬dation (NSF), will allow geoscientists and engineers to research the behavior of subsurface rock, minerals, water and energy sources
