MissionGuidance

Improve Your Data Acquisition Instantly

Phoenix LiDAR Systems’ MissionGuidance is designed to help streamline manned LiDAR data acquisition by providing automated navigation and tools for the pilot to stay exactly on course.

Description

In unmanned acquisition, a flightplan is commonly loaded into the UAV and executed by the flightcontroller with predictable velocity and accuracy. However, unmanned acquisition adds a pilot/driver as an additional source of uncertainty.

Phoenix LiDAR Systems' MissionGuidance is designed to help streamline manned LiDAR data acquisition by supplying the pilot/driver with guidance information. The same flightplan that would be navigated by a UAV's flightcontroller is now visualized to the pilot relative to the vehicle's current position along with allowed tolerances, allowing fine adjustments in realtime.

A wide range of configration options allows customizing the visualization to the pilots's preferences, while a deep integration into SpatialExplorer supports intuitive flightplan management by the sensor operator.
