Airborne LiDAR has a wide range of uses:
  • Pipeline, transmission line or highway and railway corridor surveys.
  • Urban environments - lidar data is often used for Telecommunications planning work.
  • Flood plain surveys - coastal or river
  • Urban mapping
  • Forestry (mapping of tree canopies)
  • Archaeology, ability to penetrate tree canopies and vegetation even in densely foliated areas.
  • Seismic exploration - planning the layout for 2D and 3D work - slope maps.
  • Coastal zone surveys - accessing inter-tidal zone, or difficult access areas. Providing data for erosion, sediment transport and sea defence studies.
  • Oil and Gas - infrastructure development planning and design (Roads, pipelines, plant, well sites)

For service purchasers:

Contact us with details regarding the laser scanning survey that you require. We can provide or source lidar surveys for you based on an independent appraisal of your requirements. We also Provide independent quality control, confirming the accuracy of any data you may purchase from other providers. We can write the specifications for the work and ensure they are adhered to.

For service providers:

If you provide laser scanning services, we can provide independent confirmation of your accuracies, and offer ground GPS control services - worldwide. LiDAR processing services include coordinate transformation services for both plan and height data. Also, we can process the data to produce a variety of digital products, including: Digital Elevation Models, contour models, vector maps for showing water drainage and more...
