Abstract

A surveillance system for detecting an object within a monitored infrastructure and to a hybrid 3D surveying device, wherein a LiDAR device is configured that scanning is carried out with respect to two essentially orthogonal axes and wherein the LiDAR device comprises a cover mounted on the base, such that the base and the cover form an enclosure that encloses all moving parts of the LiDAR device, wherein the cover is configured to be opaque for visible light and translucent for the wavelength range of the LiDAR transmission radiation. The system further comprises a computing unit configured for processing the LiDAR measurement data to generate a 3D point cloud of the monitored infrastructure, and an object detector configured for classification of the object based on the 3D point cloud.
