Abstract
A method for obtaining a three-dimensional model of an inspection site, using a perception module, is disclosed. The perception module comprises a detection unit, e.g. comprising one or more cameras and/or a three-dimensional laser scanner, configured to obtain a three-dimensional image. At least one three-dimensional image is obtained by means of the detection unit. A three-dimensional model of surroundings of the perception module is created, based on the obtained three-dimensional image. The created three-dimensional model and a plan of the inspection site are compared and features of the created three-dimensional model and features of the plan of the inspection site are matched. A site-specific three-dimensional model of the inspection site is formed, based on the created three-dimensional model and the plan of the inspection site, and based on the comparison.
