Lidar Scanning and Data Processing
Futurotec is providingLidar Mapping Surveys in India with of High Definition (LiDAR) scanning systems comprising Terrestrial, Backpack, Mobile and Aerial LiDAR scanners. We have developed a partnership with leading drone operators companies in India
Data processing involves converting raw LiDAR point cloud data into usable, accurate, and meaningful information. LiDAR technology uses laser light to measure distances to the Earth's surface, capturing highly accurate 3D representations of objects, terrain, and environments. This data is often used in a variety of fields, including geospatial mapping, surveying, forestry, urban planning, and autonomous vehicles
The primary output of LIDAR is a point cloud—a dense collection of 3D points with X, Y, and Z coordinates, which may also include attributes like intensity, return number, and classification.
There aren't many applications that wouldn't benefit from using LIDAR technology. From busy construction sites to deep underground — LiDAR sensors are ideal solutions for a variety of industries. Here are a few examples:
AEC
LIDAR technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in AEC. Tracking building projects and producing digital twins for Building Information Modeling (BIM). Plus mapping the built environment like buildings, road networks, or railways.
Terrain Mapping
Surveying tasks often require laser scans to collect 3D measurements to create Digital Terrain Models (DTM) and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of landscapes and large areas.
Real Estate
Creating 2D floorplans using 3D point cloud data is ideal for measuring the space of a building or gaining insights ahead of renovation projects.
Environment
Environmental applications for LIDAR are plentiful. Laser scanning is a popular method of mapping flood risk, carbon stocks in forestry and monitoring coastal erosion.
Mining
Creating 3D models of mines provides greater visibility of progress but can also improve safety through various means like regularly reviewing and analyzing movement in the rockface.
Autonomous Vehicles
LIDAR sensors are also implemented in autonomous vehicles (AVs), creating detailed 3D maps of the surrounding areas in real-time. LiDAR technology is key in providing AVs with the perception needed to navigate safely and efficiently in diverse environments.
