Aerial Lidar surveys use laser technology to survey large areas quickly and accurately.
Lidar captures wide area terrain information and above ground features more efficiently than conventional survey methods.
The acquired point cloud can be used to accurately map terrain and provide real world positions of extracted features such as utilities or structures.
