Construction

Designed specifically for small unmanned aerial vehicles, the RedTail LiDAR System is a superior point cloud generation tool that can help you manage all stages of the construction process.

With no interference to operations or construction activities, the RedTail LiDAR System quickly creates high resolution point clouds which can be imported directly into construction and architectural software solutions.

From roadways and waterways, to airports and commercial development projects, data collected with the RedTail LiDAR System can be used to:

conceptualize designs
evaluate sightlines and distances
complete topographic maps and boundary surveys
confirm as-bid conditions
determine flood elevations
map vegetation and wetlands to support environmental assessment studies
monitor construction impacts
survey projects in hazardous areas without endangering the crew or the public
document as-built plans

The RedTail LiDAR System is the optimal solution for construction project planning, mapping, and monitoring.

Infrastructure

Designed specifically for small unmanned aerial vehicles, the RedTail LiDAR System is a superior point cloud generation tool that can help you survey, map, analyze and monitor all of your infrastructure projects.

The RedTail LiDAR System quickly creates high resolution point clouds which can be imported directly into mapping, design, and engineering software solutions, allowing you to assess and complete your infrastructure projects more effectively.

From power lines and pipelines, to railways and roadways, data collected with the RedTail LiDAR System can be used to:

create detailed topographic maps
perform boundary surveys
inspect and monitor conditions of existing infrastructure
collect accurate position information of wires, structures, vegetation and terrain
improve maintenance planning and scheduling for screws and equipment
monitor vegetation and terrain changes around power lines and pipelines
monitor environmental conditions before and after an infrastructure development project
evaluate how new structures will integrate into an existing landscape

The RedTail LiDAR System is the optimal solution for your infrastructure surveying, mapping, inspecting, analyzing, and monitoring needs.

Agriculture

Designed specifically for small unmanned aerial vehicles, the RedTail LiDAR System is a superior point cloud generation tool that can help you streamline workflows in the field and make informed crop and livestock management decisions that result in reduced costs and increased productivity.

The RedTail LiDAR System quickly creates high resolution, highly accurate, 3D point clouds of your agricultural land.

Data collected with the RedTail LiDAR System can be used to:

create slope and sunlight exposure area maps
monitor irrigation and fertilizer needs
detect crop damage, analyze stand counts, and estimate harvest yield
identify and minimize the impact of pests and disease
observe plant growth, calculate grove maturity, and detect areas of irregularities
map water flow and catchments
monitor erosion, soil loss, and assess storm damage
assess livestock foraging needs and determine optimal foraging areas

The RedTail LiDAR System is the optimal solution for your agricultural mapping, monitoring, and assessment needs.

Resource Management

Designed specifically for small unmanned aerial vehicles, the RedTail LiDAR System is a superior point cloud generation tool that supports your resource management surveying, mapping, assessment, and monitoring needs. The RedTail LiDAR System quickly creates high resolution, highly accurate, 3D maps of your natural and cultural landscapes, safely and cost effectively.

From wetlands and forests, to cultural and historical landscapes, data collected with the RedTail LiDAR System can be used to:

create topographic maps and perform boundary surveys
map wetlands and vegetation to support environmental assessments
monitor forest canopies to assess forest structure, ecology and habitats
quantify forest fire risk and support forest fire management strategy development
monitor deforestation and develop precision forestry practices to increase productivity
assess habitat biodiversity
conduct human impact studies
evaluate and implement erosion control measures
conduct surveys in hazardous areas without endangering the crew or the public
detect large-scale features, such as mounds, foundations, and spatial patterns
accurately document three-dimensional measurements of structures
document existing cultural and historic sites to guide preservation and rehabilitation

The RedTail LiDAR System is the optimal solution for resource management planning, mapping, assessment, and monitoring.
