Using the LiDAR Technology for Safety, Product Delivery, and Advance Efficiency.
LiDAR technology provides a remarkable capability for the rapid 3D mapping of highways, infrastructure, and buildings using vehicle-mounted lasers and digital video cameras. It helps with collecting engineering/ survey-grade lidar data over large or small areas.
Through the LiDAR application, capturing every detail along with a highway corridor - including road barriers, cracks in the road surface, ditches, and overhead wires etc. Surveyors can create highly accurate 3D digital models for new planning, road infrastructure, maintenance, wide load route assessment, and asset management applications such as:
LiDAR technology helps Highway and Road Survey industry in multiple of areas which can be summarized into these 3 sections
LiDAR applications in highway road projects provide significant benefits by enabling rapid and accurate data collection. Unlike traditional methods, LiDAR can capture all visible features in a single pass, making it faster and safer. It eliminates the need for surveyors to be on-site, reducing safety concerns and keeping lanes open, minimizing disruptions to traffic. Additionally, LiDAR collects 1,000 times more data in under 10% of the time, enhancing efficiency in data acquisition.
LiDAR allows for the collection of both GIS and survey data simultaneously, providing comprehensive datasets. When integrated with airborne LiDAR, GIS, and ortho imagery, this data set offers complete, detailed, and accurate information that can be utilized for various purposes. This application is particularly useful in situations with overhead obstructions, low cloud ceilings, or light rain, as LiDAR can capture data even in challenging environmental conditions.
LiDAR is an essential tool for emergency and tactical planning, allowing for the collection of detailed topographic data quickly. This application is beneficial for projects such as floodplain analysis, coastal mapping, and accident reconstruction. With LiDAR, planners can assess areas for potential risks and develop effective emergency response strategies.
