Using Point Clouds

Whenever you need to create a detailed model of an area — for surveying, accident reconstruction, or any other purpose — creating a point cloud can be the best way to get the job done.

An accurate, detailed, high-resolution 3D point cloud model is an important element in accurate 3D model creation. If your organization is seeking a new way to create digital reconstructions of physical spaces or structures, drones capable of generating point clouds may be the perfect tool for you.

A new LiDAR payload makes aerial surveying more accessible.

Many surveyors are now using UAVs in their daily operations, with drones like the DJI Matrice 300 RTK as an essential part of their toolkit. However, the upgrade to including LiDAR laser scanning has been costly, and previous technology has been known to be difficult to set up and calibrate.

The new DJI Zenmuse L1 sets to change that. A clip-on payload that combines the power of LiDAR and high-quality photography at an affordable price, the L1 provides a glimpse into a more accessible future of aerial surveying technology.
