Geodetic Control of the Geometry of the Bridge in Kula Using Terrestrial Laser Scanning Technology

In this paper, the control of the geometry of a bridge located in Kula, Serbia, was performed. This bridge bridges the Danube-Tisa-Danube canal and is a part of road 108 that runs from Bačka Topola to the Croatian border. In order to perform the geodetic control of the bridge's geometry, terrestrial laser scanning of the bridge was conducted, where a point cloud was obtained as a product. The geometry control procedure involved controlling the verticality of the grooves that enabled the movement of the weights used to raise the bridge and allowed for navigation in the canal. The geometry control of the two horizontal beams of the bridge was also examined. The results that were obtained were interpreted tabularly and graphically.
