Join the May 2021 Phoenix LiDAR Systems webinar, hosted by Senior GIS Engineer Ira Monkfold, as he dives into survey-grade calibration and accuracies from point cloud data. This insightful session focuses on the LiDAR Snap 4 calibration tool within the SpatialExplorer software. Learn about the essential requirements for achieving precise point cloud data and how Phoenix LiDAR Systems can help you create survey-grade data effortlessly.

Ira explains the critical importance of precise system calibration, covering accurate measurements of lever arms and the alignment of laser, GNSS, and IMU components. He highlights the necessity of mission-specific optimization to address in-flight anomalies, ensuring data accuracy. The integration of surveyed ground control points is emphasized as a vital step for achieving geospatial accuracy, with LiDAR Snap 4 providing comprehensive calibration and reporting tools.

LiDAR Snap 4 revolutionizes the calibration process by combining multiple steps into a single, user-friendly software interface, significantly reducing complexity and time. The software features advanced capabilities such as encoder calibrations and trajectory optimizations, offering users reliable survey-grade point cloud data. The webinar also includes a Q&A session, addressing software capabilities, processing times, and compatibility with various LiDAR systems and platforms.

Join the Phoenix LiDAR Systems webinar on advanced imaging systems, held on April 21, 2021. Hosted by Conrad Conterno, Head of Post-Processing, and Justin Wyatt, VP of Sales at Phoenix LiDAR Systems, along with Nick Nelio, Inspection Sales Manager for Phase One, this session dives into how Phoenix LiDAR’s data collection tools integrate with Phase One’s cutting-edge imaging systems to enhance remote sensing capabilities.

Conrad Conterno opens with an overview of Phoenix LiDAR’s custom mapping solutions, emphasizing LiDAR sensor integration for superior data acquisition and analysis. He introduces various advanced camera options, including the lightweight custom A6K Light for UAV-based mapping, dual oblique cameras for enhanced colorization, multispectral solutions for detailed vegetation analysis, thermal mapping cameras for environmental monitoring, and hyperspectral sensors for precise spectral analysis.

Nick Nelio then showcases Phase One’s high-resolution, medium-format cameras, focusing on the 4-band solution that combines RGB and near-infrared imagery, ideal for crop analysis and environmental monitoring. He also presents the Phase One P3 payload for inspection applications and the IX Mach 5 controller designed for efficient geospatial missions.

Throughout the webinar, the benefits of direct geo-referencing and the seamless integration of multiple sensors into single payloads are highlighted. The hosts address audience questions on the accuracy of dual-camera systems, post-processing challenges, and the applications of hyperspectral imaging.

The session concludes with Justin Wyatt and Nick Nelio emphasizing their collaborative approach to delivering tailored solutions and inviting viewers to contact them for personalized consultations.

The webinar also includes a detailed Q&A session, addressing compatibility, geoid applications, and software comparisons, with insights from CTO Ben Adler. Don’t miss this opportunity to see how Spatial Explorer 6 Pro can streamline your LiDAR data processing and deliver superior results.

The high dimensionality of data generated by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)-Lidar makes it difficult to use classical statistical techniques to design accurate predictive models from these data for conducting forest inventories. Machine learning techniques have the potential to solve this problem of modeling forest attributes from remotely sensed data. This work tests four different machine learning approaches – namely Support Vector Regression, Random Forest, Artificial Neural Networks, and Extreme Gradient Boosting – on high-density GatorEye UAV-Lidar point clouds for indirect estimation of individual tree dendrometric metrics (field-derived) such as diameter at breast height, total height, and timber volume.
