A topocompositional image of an inanimate object or surface can be generated that comprises data that relates to a topographical image, data that relates to a chemical compositional image, and combining such topographical and chemical compositional data to form a composite image. Conceptually a laser or other suitable imaging source that functions to induce both topographical and chemical compositional data directs a laser beam into a scanning optics source. The scanning optics source directs an active beam to a point on a surface. A sensor subsequently collects data and information from the surface by receiving the reflection or deflection of the active beams in order to provide position, chemical compositional and topographical data that represent the interaction of the active beam with a point. Position data, chemical compositional data and topographical data are transmitted along individual feeds to a data analysis component where they are analyzed and combined in order to generate a composite image.
