The focus of this work is 'Modeling the Reality'. The goal is the reconstruction of scenes with accurate geometry and real radiometric textures. We present a novel, multi-sensor calibration and registration framework that fuses highly accurate and robust colored panoramic 3D data. To achieve this, we use a panoramic 2.5D laser scanner in combination with a 2D array camera and an electronic spirit-level. For covering the same visual field for the digital camera, it is mounted on a vertical tilt-unit. In summary, we present the sensor model of a highly accurate multi sensor system including robust methods for the calibration and registration of the local data streams and its fusion to a dense, global 3D point cloud.      «
