Webinar: Maximizing 3D Technology for Forensic Investigations

The world of investigation has changed – in the complexities of what we must analyze and in what constitutes a thorough assessment of the evidence. We have seen how general technology can influence the perception and outcome of a case – how many cell phone tapings of a situation did you see in the news last year?

It’s time to discover how 3D technology can positively impact the quality and thoroughness of your crime scene documentation, analysis and presentation.

This webinar focuses on diving into internationally recognized cases and shows you how the use of laser scanners, photogrammetry and structured light scanners were used to find the truth in the evidence and provide extraordinary flexibility, efficiency and diligence in their investigations and court presentations.

This webinar will

provide you a deeper understanding of how 3D data capture technology creates deliverables such as virtual tours, plan drawings, 3D printed evidence and even fully immersive environments.
enable to see examples of types of analysis, such as bullet trajectories or blood stain pattern analysis, that 3D data visualization can provide greater context to through a virtual crime scene.
allow you to dive into the real case examples of how this mixture of photographs, video and 3D measurement data created presentations that brought true justice to light in the courtroom.

Who Should Attend: Law Enforcement Investigators, Crime Scene Investigators, Fire Investigators, Private Forensic Investigators
