OVERVIEW
WHAT IS DRONE-BASED LiDAR SURVEYING?
Drone-based LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) surveying is one of the most advanced terrain data acquisition methods available today. It enables fast, accurate and objective mapping of large areas.
This technology is especially beneficial in projects where precise terrain information is critical for planning, execution and risk reduction. It performs effectively even on complex surfaces and in areas covered with vegetation.
APPLICATIONS
WHY IS DRONE-BASED LiDAR SURVEYING ADVANTAGEOUS?
Compared to traditional land surveying and photogrammetry, LiDAR is an active laser-based measurement method that captures not only the surface, but also its true elevation characteristics.
Laser pulses can partially penetrate vegetation, allowing accurate terrain modeling even in forested or densely vegetated areas.
As a result, a comprehensive dataset is generated that can be reused across multiple project phases without the need for repeated field surveys.

What We Offer
POINT CLOUD DATA
LAS-LAZ
The basis of LiDAR surveying is a three-dimensional dataset composed of millions of measured points, where «LAS» represents the standard format and «LAZ» is the compressed version.
APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES:
- Preparation of detailed spatial analyses
- Post-survey measurements and verification
- Volume and elevation difference calculations
- Subsequent data reprocessing and application of new filters
- Long-term digital archiving
- Use as base data for further processing
What We Offer
DIGITAL TERRAIN MODEL
DEM-DTM | GEOTIFF
The digital terrain model represents the terrain surface, cleaned from vegetation and artificial objects, in a continuous and gridded format. The GeoTIFF format ensures accurate georeferencing and software-independent usability.
APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES:
- Slope and gradient analysis
- Water flow and drainage modelling
- Earthwork and volume calculations
- Preparation of base layers for design in CAD and GIS environments
What We Offer
CONTOUR MAP
DXF-DWG
The contour map represents terrain elevation in a clear and visual format. The «DXF» and «DWG» formats can be used directly in AutoCAD and Civil 3D environments.
APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES:
- Preparation of design and permitting documentation
- Preparation for decision-making and regulatory coordination
- Preparation of construction workflows
What We Offer
CIVIL 3D
SURFACE MODEL
In a Civil 3D environment, a directly editable surface model can be created from the measured data, from which sections, longitudinal and cross profiles, as well as additional contour lines can be generated.
APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES:
- Fast generation of contour lines, sections and longitudinal profiles
- Analysis and quick comparison of design alternatives
- Acceleration and/or simplification of the design process
- More accurate preliminary quantity estimation
What We Offer
MAP VISUALIZATION
The «PDF» format map attachment is a scaled, well-structured and clearly presented material with legend, suitable for both printing and digital sharing.
APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES:
- Support for decision-making
- Support for regulatory control
- Support for on-site inspections
