Abstract: The quarry storage requires frequent monitoring and measurements. The conventional method to conduct the storage survey is to use prism total station. However, due to the complicated topography and the survey error, this estimate might have significant technical difficulties. The three dimensional laser scan technique is able to avoid these shortcomings and provide a faster way of estimating the quarry storage. The paper also discusses the feasibility and the application of the new scan technique in the real time estimating the quarry storage.
