Hogs Back Locks

Ottawa, ON


Located in the heart of Ottawa , the Hogs Back Lockstation is made up of Locks 11 and 12 in the Rideau Canal World Heritage site. The locks were built at the spot where the canal leaves the Rideau River and heads overland to the Ottawa Locks. A large dam, the second highest on the Rideau system was needed to provide the required lift of water.

The point cloud data for this model was captured in four scans by mobile mapping with the Kaarta Contour hand-held scanner. Total time required on site for data capture was approximately 2 hours.
