Construction
& Engineering.

Contribute to the smart cities of the future.

From the initial planning stages to the final project delivery, LiDAR systems are an asset to the construction industry.

Construction companies and civil engineers use UAV LiDAR solutions in diverse projects to create Digital Terrain Models (DTM), Digital Surface Models (DSM) or Digital Elevation Models (DEM)

UAV LiDAR mapping offers a wealth of data and cuts costs. Our 3D mapping solutions can help you with earthworks, project planning and infrastructure optimizations.

Key benefits

YellowScan LiDAR systems offer high-accuracy and high-resolution 3D data collection and provide quick access to urban landscapes.

The pointclouds produced enable the creation of BIM models (Building Information Modeling) which contribute to the decision making and the real-time quality control of the construction.

Ensure proper planning and decision making

Record conditions at any stage of the construction project and oversee earthwork planning (quantity survey, mass excavation and structural excavation)

Optimized operations

Get the data you need to manage your day-to-day raw material stock, cut & fill volumes, site arrangements and work out the construction materials needed.

Modeling and analysis

Our system can generate detailed 3D data that depicts the terrain and construction progress to be incorporated into a CAD/GIS system. This will help you monitor and anticipate construction impacts

Rugged & Reliable

Survey rough and vegetation-covered terrains

Reduce human risks

Our systems will allow you to map an entire project, while eliminating on-the-ground logistics and dangers
