Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about lidar drone surveying & mapping for mining & aggregates
When should I use LiDAR over photogrammetry?
Use LiDAR when you need bare-earth terrain under vegetation, or consistent accuracy regardless of surface texture.
How dense is the point cloud?
We capture 200-400 points per square meter, allowing detailed feature extraction.
Can you classify vegetation layers?
Yes, we provide multi-layer vegetation classification per ASPRS standards.
