LiDAR laser scanning from the drone

WHAT IS LIDAR?

If you think that LiDAR is the next gadget as it could be in Star Wars, we want to explain everything to you! LiDAR (Light Detector and Ranging) is the state-of-the-art technology, which allows us to map the world with laser precision. Imagine the laser, that is combined with a modern drone, creates incredibly accurate maps of the terrain. Sounds futuristic? That’s the case! Thanks to LiDAR we can forget about old and less accurate mapping methods and step into the future at the speed of light (exactly!). Apart from this, if you want to have your golf field, land property or mystic ruins in the wild mapped, LiDAR will make it fast, more precise and without an unwilling mess.

ARE YOU CURIOUS HOW DOES THIS LiDAR WORK?

LiDAR works by sending out laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for them to return to the transmitter. LiDAR is not only the laser and scanner, but also a complex system involving GPS (accurate position) and IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) which follows every move.

USE OF DRONES IN LIDAR

Drones equipped with LIDAR are the best answer for the modern mapping needs. They are fast, agile and they are able to scan the terrain with an incredible accuracy, simultaneously omitting the obstacles that the traditional terrain methods are meeting. The drones eliminate the need of access to difficult to achieve places. It makes the mapping process faster and easier. Moreover, the cost of renting the plane or helicopter is really high.

LIDAR USAGE

Archeology

LIDAR in archeology allows us to explore and map archeologic stations without damaging the finds. Discovering the treasures with new technology which allows exact terrain researches and documentation.

Geodesy/Surveying

LiDAR in geodesy is a precise tool for creating accurate terrain maps and 3D models. According to this, it is possible to obtain detailed planning and realisation of construction and infrastructural projects.

Crisis management

Making flood maps and analysing natural risks by using LiDAR technology becomes fast and accurate. Precise field data is crucial in crisis situations, allowing us to react quickly and minimise the results of the catastrophe.

Other usage

LIDAR finds its usage in precise agriculture, civil engineering, forest management and in the other fields. It is a comprehensive tool that revolutionalises the way we analyse and manage space.

Our projects profits time save, precise data, customer satisfaction. We have been in this field for years and we know what is going on. Our team is composed of experts with passion for technology, which pushes us to develop and find the newest technologies, such as LIDAR laser scanning, with which we have a solid wealth of experience.
