Leica TerrainMapper-3 linear-mode LiDAR Sensor
The all-in-one sensor for versatile airborne LiDAR mapping
The Leica TerrainMapper-3 is the latest linear-mode airborne LiDAR sensor, providing greater flexibility than ever before. New features and improved existing capabilities extend the operational range of our airborne LiDAR offering, allowing users to execute an array of jobs formerly requiring multiple systems. Address applications from wide-area LiDAR data acquisition down to the highest-density corridor mapping projects, all with the same system. Featuring an adjustable field of view up to 60 degrees, new configurable scan technology and simultaneous matching-FOV imagery in four bands, the TerrainMapper-3 is designed to enhance the productivity of the most diverse applications in a single system. The sensor seamlessly integrates with Leica HxMap’s end-to-end processing workflow, supporting users from mission planning to product generation to extract the greatest value from the data.
Flexible Scan Patterns
The circle scan pattern enhances 3D modelling of lower-density urban areas or steep terrains, while the ellipse scan pattern optimises data capture in dense urban areas. The skew ellipse scan pattern improves point density for infrastructure and corridor mapping applications.
High-accuracy Data
Reduced beam divergence improves planimetric accuracy, and the new MPIA handling ensures more consistent data, even in steep terrain. TerrainMapper-3 introduces capabilities for real-time full waveform recording, even at maximum pulse rate, and return pulse attribute output, opening new opportunities for advanced and automated point classification.
Improved Efficiency
The new system puts an efficient, all-in-one solution in the hands of airborne data collection professionals. Higher scan speeds enable users to fly faster while collecting high-quality data. High-performance 2 MHz LiDAR featuring an expanded 60-degree adjustable field of view allows users to capture more data with fewer flight lines.
