Scott Page has a collection of images he's created with a 3D Laser Scanner - a device that creates a photorealistic 3D recreation of a space. I won't act like I entirely understand the recording process but, at a rudimentary level, it's combining panorama style digital camera images and 3D point data for a particular space. Repeated enough times throughout an area, you can make a pretty impressive mapping of a place.

How is this helpful? Well, as this article points out, it can create incredibly useful data for historical spaces to be renovated instead of destroyed. Please Browse this gallery to see the results. The images are like ghostly x-rays of spaces but presented almost like a videogame map. It's bizarre and incredibly fascinating.
