Mobile mapping systems are part of modern data collection in geodesy. It is one of many surveying methods where field collection is performed in a short time. Among their advantages are cost savings and better visualisation than classic surveying methods. This article is focused on accuracy determinations in urban built-up areas of mobile laser scanning using the Riegl VMX-2HA system. These areas, where there is a combination of dense housing and trees, are an integral part of cities. Their diversity and complexity make surveying by other surveying methods time-consuming and complicated. In particular, the GNSS RTK method encounters problematic locations where sky obscuration by surrounding elements reduces measurement accuracy. Data collection was performed on a test base in the city of Pilsen, Czech Republic. The base includes 27 control points and more than 100 checkpoints. Two sets of coordinates were created for the points; the first set is calculated using tied net adjustment and the second one is determined by RTK GNSS measurements. Point cloud calculations were processed in RiPROCESS software from Riegl, using different configurations and qualities of the control points. Each point cloud was analysed including the determination of point cloud deviations. This article is also dedicated to the identification of problematic spots, where measurement can be degraded. The results presented in this paper show the influence of the quality and different spacing of the control points on the point cloud, its accuracy compared to the precise points, and the global and local deformation of the point cloud. This work can be used as a basis for replacing classical surveying methods with a more efficient mobile laser scanning method.
