Ouch!

Plenty of tie points at least.

When I was at London Underground, the idea was mooted around to have some custom wall tiles in place at every station with a B/W target design. Be interested to see if that develops over time.

I also noticed that there were small checkered targets up in Terminal 3 of the Toronto airport. I wonder who was scanning that?

OK, so two places I need to remember to not scan...Dance theater in Malaysia and airport terminal in Orlando...got it!

Ha ha - that's fantastic ! Whoever laid those tiles has a special place in hell reserved for them, being brutally beaten by a surveyor.

I've scanned a Mini car dealership. The workshop had a lot of checkered roof decals left hanging about in the workshop, which gave me a lot of work to do in the office. Scene auto detected at least 50 extra targets than it should have in a fair few scans, which was fun to sort out.

In such case I would run targetless registration first and than used detected checkerboards for quality checks :)
