Thank you both so much for your answers!
I feel a little silly for asking the question, when seeing the measurements taken by matlabbe.
I hope I haven't wasted your time.
I'm very grateful for the info provided though. It has taught me a lot.
It's true that the trajectory is all over the place. I once saw an article on photogrammetry (or was it 3D scanning), which gave some pointers, that the optimal workflow, was to stand with the back to a wall, and then scan the opposing wall, and preferably perpendicular to the scanned area.

In a faulty effort to achieve this, along with trying to get a lot of loop closures, I can see that I clearly overcomplicated my scan.
Thank you again for the suggestions Eric. That method should also reduce the time needed for the scan.

And thank you matlabbe for the suggestion on the mesh. It actually fixes the problem I've been having with the pointcloud boundaries having thickness. Excellent! :-)
