This weekend we set out to laser scan sections of Dowkerbottom Cave and Ingleborough Cave with a Leica RTC360 Laser Scanner. Looking forward to seeing the outcomes! Thanks to Colleen and Paulina, plus again our caving expert Chris Jackson as well as the Ingleborough cave management (and 2 additional helpers!).
