Description
The new RIEGL VQ-780i is a high-performance, rugged, lightweight, and compact airborne mapping sensor. This versatile system is designed for highly efficient data acquisition at low, mid, and high altitudes, covering various airborne laser scanning applications from high-density to wide-area mapping.
The high-speed rotating mirror design ensures reliability and uniform point distribution across its entire wide field of view and at all flying altitudes. Based on RIEGL's proven Waveform-LiDAR technology, the system provides clutter-free point clouds with high accuracy, excellent vertical target resolution, calibrated reflectance readings, and pulse shape deviation for unsurpassed information content on every single measurement. The system is complemented by RIEGL's advanced acquisition and data processing software suite that utilises parallel computing (GPU) for fast data processing. The scanner is designed to work with the latest Inertial Navigation (IMU) systems, flight management systems, and camera options.
