AIRBORNE LIDAR SURVEYING SUPPORT
LiDAR technology is short for Light Detection and Ranging. LiDAR is a popular remote sensing technology used by licensed surveyors, archaeologists, GIS departments, and other disciplines.
​
Think of LiDAR as an extremely bright spotlight that shines above a thick tree canopy in the pitch dark. The light that makes it to the ground or various parts of the tree returns a location and distance based on the range of elevation.
​
LiDAR is extremely useful for creating Digital Elevation Models (DEM) underneath vegetation that would otherwise require land clearing and manual labor to get a spatial representation of the surface.
Said technology offers significant cost savings over traditional ground-based surveying methods.
​
We capture aerial LiDAR data with NDAA complaint UAS platforms and or manned aircraft.
​
Not only is LiDAR a safer noninvasive technology, it can also be extremely useful for As-Built documentation, change detection analysis, mining operations, stockpiling, volumetrics, coastal erosion analysis, Right-of-way pre-clearing operations, and utility assets.
