# Scan with Leica RTC

The Leica path supports [Leica RTC series](https://leica-geosystems.com/fi-fi/products/laser-scanners/scanners/leica-rtc-series?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23937652239&gbraid=0AAAAACq_QLHSYJzRuivsPMys-6Qjo_tGh&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4JbTBhCoARIsALWUaBugm2tEJfL7CamyhF-uTGYajsFnnU9JOAv2-jDmvcFI4DaV_CtBf8YaAqA6EALw_wcB) projects that export a self-contained E57. 01Spatial converts each station's cube images into a panorama while preserving station poses and 3D data.

> Leica RTC data requires neither 01Spatial Reference Boards nor Map Configurator; upload it and start the build.

## Capture and register

- Keep fixed stations within about 5 m with strong visible overlap.
- Place stations on both sides of doors, turns, and level transitions.
- Complete registration and inspect ghosting, tilt, and isolated stations before export.

## Export and upload

Export one E57 containing station images, poses, and point cloud. Do not disable images. Put the E57 in a ZIP without data from another coordinate frame. Select **Leica RTC** in Spatial Maps, submit the ZIP, and build.

When Ready, inspect Points, LiDAR, and Mesh, paying attention to image coverage, station boundaries, and reflective geometry before localization validation.
