Dual Wavelength Waveform Processing Airborne LiDAR Scanning System for High-Point Density Mapping Applications

Dual Wavelength Waveform Processing Airborne LiDAR Scanning System for High-Point Density Mapping Applications NEW RIEGL VQ-156i-DW enhanced target characterization based upon simultaneous measurements at green and infrared laser wavelengths high laser pulse repetition rate of up to 1 MHz per laser channel The VQ-156i-DW is a new airborne LiDAR scanning system offering two LiDAR channels of different wavelengths, green and infrared (IR). These wavelengths are well chosen to allow the acquisition of scan data of complementary information content, thus delivering two independent reflectance distribution maps, one per laser wavelength. up to 1.33 million measurements per Scan data acquired with the RIEGL VQ-156i-DW are the input for wellestablished scan data processing methods but also for the develop- second on the ground ment of highly sophisticated data a processing and evaluation algorithms data acquisition at a wide range of for new areas of application like vegetation mapping in agriculture and point densities forestry. Thus the VQ-156i-DW -DW offers innovative technology for commercial as well as scientific and research applications. The VQ-156i-DW provides a laser pulse repetition rate of up to excellent multiple target capability enables Multiple-Time-Around (MTA) processing of up to 2 pulses 1MHz per LiDAR channel, resulting in a total of more than 1.3 million simultaneously in the air measurements per second on the ground. The VQ-156i-DW works at highest productivity when both LiDAR online waveform processing as channels are combined, typically at altitudes up to 83 ft. However, well as smart and full waveform each channel is also prepared for stand-alone operation. This channel recording for both LiDAR channels selection capability in combination with a matched line of measu- integrated inertial measurement rement programs as well as widely variable scan parameters enable unit and GNSS receiver highest possible flexibility for meeting highly specific requirements of integrated, easily accessible challenging application scenarios. medium format camera The system is completed by a high performance IMU/GNSS unit and up two optional cameras.
