With the world population growing unlike ever before, there is a potential crisis on the lack of agricultural land and a threat of food scarcity. Therefore, there is a need for smart farming and efficient cultural practices. LiDAR can help…
LiDAR has become crucial in transitioning the world of civil and construction engineering from 2D paper-based to 3D digital design. Any technology that can improve measurement, productivity, and processes will naturally be in demand. A whole new world of opportunities…
Assessing the condition of Yosemite’s forests is important to understand things such as how much carbon they store. This can be done by using data gathered with laser-based technology (LiDAR). Climate change affects many green forest areas and it also…
Imaging can be a tricky service to price. A simple photo snapped with your smartphone may have no intrinsic value beyond the memory it holds. At the same time, medical images cost thousands of dollars, and original artwork of the…
As an engineering tool, nothing gets past LiDAR. LiDAR is nothing short of revolutionary. With it, users can map an area with incredible detail, like nothing seen before. In fact, LiDAR even “see” through natural and manmade elements, such as…
Creating an accurate representation of a large industrial site is a complex task. It requires capturing specific details on a large scale without closing the site or causing disruption. On many sites, whole areas are restricted or unsafe to enter,…
A couple of dozen teen girls from the San Diego Health Sciences High School were able to operate a $60,000 drone on their own. While on their Spring break, the girls who are studying to be FAA certified drone pilots,…
LiDAR technology is helping countless industries create a better future for everyone. While terrestrial LiDAR is suitable for many projects, some use cases may benefit from aerial LiDAR technology. The construction industry, for example, is becoming increasingly reliant on drones…
Florida's population is growing rapidly, seeing a 1.1% increase in the 15 months from April 1, 2020, to July 1, 2021. If that rate of growth continues, that's like seeing an 8.8% increase in the next decade. That type of…
Construction is a tough business. Job-site challenges, supply chain issues, labor problems: All these issues are common to construction. However, beyond that is the unexpected. Concrete doesn't set up to specs, requiring adaptation to make a solid solution. Sudden weather…
