Velodyne Lidar Announces Multi-Year Supply Agreement with TOPODRONE - Seite 2

TOPODRONE Delivers Precision Surveying for Customers Worldwide

TOPODRONE provides Velodyne lidar-powered scanner solutions to global markets with customers that include some of the world’s most renowned research universities. Researchers and specialists at the Natural Resources Institute Finland working on sustainable development of the Finnish bioeconomy used a TOPODRONE laser scanner mounted on a drone, quadbike and person. Even operating under hard winter conditions, such as flying under -20° C and during night, the scanner delivered high positional accuracy of collected point cloud data.

Another customer is Track Your Build, based in Sierra Leone, which offers remote sensing services for construction and infrastructure management. The company used a TOPODRONE scanner to conduct a successful topographical survey for a hydroelectric dam project. Track Your Build has now brought lidar-based surveying into its workflow for urban and rural areas to negate the need for spot elevations.

In Costa Rica, M. Eduardo Sáenz V, professional surveyor, uses TOPODRONE 100 LITE to survey forests, teak plantations, various types of farms and land for development. He commented, “The system has definitely made an impact, cutting costs and delivery times dramatically. It has proven reliable in tough working environments. The gain in time and detail are substantial. The possibilities for this tool are almost endless.”
