1. Scope
Best practice standards for the safe application of 3D imaging technology will focus primarily on the application of specific technology components common to 3D Imaging Systems. When appropriate, reference may be made to existing standards written for said technologies. Safety standards relevant to specific industry practices where the technology may be applied will not be developed given the very broad potential for application over many industries. However general mention and recommendations will be made to industry specific safety guidelines relevant to some common applications. This safety best practice covers the following topics: End-user/Operator responsibilities Safety Plan Safety Awareness Safe application of laser technology References to some applicable government regulations
The overall purpose of standards is to document and communicate best practices in the successful and consistent application of 3D imaging technology, when executed effectively, leads to an enhanced project performance. This specific document, E57.03.003, offers a best practice standard for safe field operational procedures employed in the application of 3D imaging technology. As 3D imaging technology is applied across an ever increasing area of application, a set of uniform standards for their safe application is necessary. This best practice shall serve as a guideline to both operator and end-user ensuring that necessary and reasonable precautions have been taken to assure the safe application of 3D imaging technology.
