How the Technology Works
LSAP conducts the following steps automatically:
- Selection of the data collection of the target area
- Filtering of redundant data, such as; take-off, landing, and turning
- Trajectory calculation
- Generation of laser point clouds
- Adjustment of the height difference between the air strips
- Precise RGB attribution to the points during laser geo-referencing
- LiDAR system calibration value applied to data processing for accuracy control
- Separate folder creation for finished data while raw data is kept in a different file
The data obtained has the following characteristics:
- Edge-matched data for the target area only
- Global positioning coordinates
- Ready for distance measuring and area, or volume, calculation
- RGB value on each point
- Data accuracy equivalent to post-processing
LSAP is Making Headlines
Check out the two press releases below – one from Inside Unmanned Systems who published the news the day LSAP was announced. In the second, you can learn more about the competition LidarSwiss competed in at Geo Week 2023.
Inaugural Use Case
Nano Vux 3 on M600
Our first use case took place in China on July 26, 2023. Our customer needed to map a small village in the eastern part of the country. The area is about 0.1km² and the accuracy requirement was 5cm. RGB attribution was needed. Our Nano Vux 3 equipped with LSAP was used for the project and a DJI M600 was the platform.
The mission was 6 flight lines altogether. After proper set-up was complete, the entire mission took 10 minutes to finish and the data was ready at landing.
