This paper introduces a novel method for enhancing underground pipeline inspection, specifically addressing limitations associated with traditional closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems. These systems, commonly used for capturing visual data of sewer system deformations, heavily rely on subjective human expertise, leading to limited accuracy in detection. Furthermore, their inability to perform quantitative analyses of deformation extent hampers overall inspection effectiveness. Our proposed method leverages laser point cloud data and employs a 3D scanner for objective detection of geometric deformations in underground pipe corridors. By utilizing this approach, we enable a quantitative assessment of blockage levels, offering a significant improvement over traditional CCTV-based methods. The key advantages of our method lie in its objectivity and quantification capabilities, ultimately enhancing detection reliability, accuracy, and overall inspection efficiency.
