LiDAR

Riegl VQ-480

LiDAR uses laser light to measure distance similar to RADAR, but using light rather than radio waves. The result is the ability to produce accurate, detailed surface models quickly and often at reduced costs over conventional photogrammetric mapping.

To ensure Eagle Mapping’s tradition of high quality geospatial information, we have engineered a LiDAR system based on Riegl’s VQ-480 laser scanner. Our system provides state of the art high speed, medium altitude laser scanning with superior accuracy from Riegl’s pulse waveform analysis.

THE VQ-480

150,000 measurements per second
Up to 30 targets per pulse
Echo digitization, online waveform analysis
High resolution 16 bit intensity information

PROCESSING LiDAR DATA

Eagle Mapping has many years of experience processing LiDAR data using the Terrasolid Suite. We are experts in fusing photogrammetry, imagery and LiDAR creating more useful geospatial data for our clients. We can provide:

Classified LiDAR points (DWG, LAS, Ascii, and other formats)
“Bare-Earth” DEM (DWG, DEM, GeoTiff, and others formats)
Intensity Maps (Geo-referenced TIFF, JPG, and others)
Ortho imagery or True color LiDAR points (Color imagery required for this process)
Stereo vector compilation from LiDAR data (No imagery required)

BENEFITS

Fast turn around time
Cost effective
Gives 3D structural view of bare-earth below the canopy
High precision data
