Riegl’s latest waveform processing airborne laser scanner for wide area mapping

Riegl announced the RIEGL VQ-780 II waveform processing airborne laser scanner for wide area mapping and high productivity. With a pulse repetition rate of 2 MHz and more than 1.33 million measurements per second, this system provides mission results with further increased productivity for both high-point-density mapping and ultra-wide-area mapping. This state-of-the-art airborne laser scanner is designed to work with the latest Inertial Navigation (IMU) Systems, flight management systems, and camera options. The system is complimented with RIEGL‘s advanced acquisition and data processing software suite that utilizes parallel computing (GPU) for fast data processing. The versatile scanner is designed for highly efficient data acquisition of low, mid, and high altitudes, covering a variety of different airborne laser scanning applications from high density to wide area mapping. www.riegl.com
