1. A system comprising:
a coordinate scanner configured to optically measure and determine a plurality of three-dimensional coordinates to a plurality of locations on at least one surface in the environment, the coordinate scanner being sized to be carried by a single person and moved through the environment while acquiring the plurality of three-dimensional coordinates;
a display removably coupled to the coordinate scanner, the display having a graphical user interface;
one or more processors configured to:
determine a quality attribute of a process of measuring the plurality of three-dimensional coordinates based at least in part on the movement of the coordinate scanner in the environment; and
display a graphical quality indicator on the graphical user interface based at least in part on the quality attribute, the quality indicator is a graphical element having at least one movable element;
wherein the graphical element further comprises a quality symbol, the at least one changeable bar indicating a first quality attribute, the quality symbol indicating a second quality attribute;
wherein the first quality attribute is based at least in part on the speed of the coordinate scanner, and the second quality attribute is based at least in part on a target attribute; and
wherein the target attribute is the age of the target, the age of the target being the number of successive images a natural feature or artificial target appear in a plurality of successive images acquired by the coordinate scanner.
