Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) based systems have proved their value for rapid mapping of complex environments, but achieving survey grade accuracy and repeatability has been a challenge in some environments. Surveyors were faced with a compromise between fast data capture and data accuracy, depending on the job requirements.This is no longer the case with Emesent's Automated Ground Control feature, which enhances t...

Multi-beam bathymetric surveys are used to gather detailed information about the features on the sea, river or lake bed by measuring multiple depths from a transducer array at high resolution. The result is a highly accurate 3D point cloud representation of the sea floor – similar to aerial LIDAR.

In recent years the geospatial drone market has expanded dramatically. Drone based UAS (LiDAR) and UAV (Imagery) systems vast differences make it difficult to choose one over the other. This presentation aims to explore their differences from the point cloud processing aspect. We will examine the pros and cons of each system for practical survey and mapping applications such as topographies, bare earth, volumetrics, etc. Learn how data accuracy, density, intensit...
