WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Officials for several law enforcement agencies in Kansas are learning how to work together to create three-dimensional scans in the event the state ever becomes home to a massive crime scene.
The Wichita Eagle reports that about three dozen officers and officials from multiple agencies gathered at the Kansas Aviation Museum this week to experiment with using the technology.
They were using five scanners to digitally record 3D images of the exterior of a Boeing WB-47 Stratojet and a Boeing B-52D Stratofortress on display at the old airport tarmac.
Kansas Bureau of Investigation Special Agent David Klamm says the agencies have not had a real-life collaborative effort using their 3D scanners to capture a crime scene. But he says they feel it’s only a matter of time.
