Laser Mapping
What Is LiDAR and How Does It Work?
LiDAR is an active remote sensing technology that measures precise distances using pulsed laser light.
When mounted on a drone, the LiDAR sensor emits hundreds of thousands of pulses per second toward the ground.
Each pulse reflects back to the sensor, allowing the system to calculate exact distances and build a high resolution 3D model of the terrain, structures, and vegetation.
Faster than traditional methods. Drones drastically reduce field time and speed up project delivery.
Data coverage per flight. Ensuring complete and consistent site documentation with minimal gaps.
Sky Advantage
Advantages of Aerial LiDAR
Achieve ±2-5 cm vertical accuracy, ideal for civil engineering, infrastructure planning, and precise volume calculations.
Complete in hours what could take days or weeks with ground crews, from flight to deliverables.
Safely survey steep slopes, wetlands, unstable ground, or remote sites without risk to personnel.
Capture hundreds of thousands of points per second for datasets detailed enough for advanced geospatial analysis.
From bare earth Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) to classified point clouds, canopy models, and elevation profiles, outputs are tailored to your exact needs.
