Following the sinking of the cruise ship Costa Concordia (January 13th, 2012) at Isola des Giglio in Italy, the Italian Civil Protection Department appointed the Earth Sciences Department of the University of Firenze as responsible for a permanent laser scanning monitoring. The terrestrial laser scanning system RIEGL LMS-Z420i is currently employed to assess the movements of the shipwreck. In combination with other monitoring systems they contribute to the safety of the rescue and salvage team.
