Summary
Using a terrestrial Laser Scanner is a well-established method for documenting crime scenes. Since 2009 this method is also used by the crime surveyors in Hamburg. The three dimensional measuring of crime scenes is providing a significant potential for investigating and reconstructing the crime. Beside the terrestrial Laser Scanning, the Hamburg crime surveyors are additionally operating two mobile handheld Scanners. The experience shows, that this is a very good method supplementing the terrestrial Laser Scanner and making the usage more flexible. Places difficult to scan, pattern of injuries or potential tools used for the crime are scanned by the Scanner DPI7 and the handheld mobile device Spider.
