TerrainMapper-2

Leica TerrainMapper-2 flexible linear-mode LiDAR sensor

The Leica TerrainMapper-2 is the latest linear-mode LiDAR airborne sensor providing the highest performance for regional mapping projects. Thanks to gateless MPiA, the sensor system delivers outstanding accuracy, unmatched point density and even point distribution even in mountainous terrain. The system is designed to offer the maximum flexibility for all applications from narrow-swath corridors to high altitude applications over complex and changing environments for the delivery of highest fidelity data.

The TerrainMapper-2 includes a 2 MHz LiDAR sensor combined with two nadir 150 MP cameras in RGB and NIR that deliver high quality imagery for point cloud colourisation and orthophoto creation. The integration of the most innovative optical system on the market makes this new LiDAR sensor a true hybrid system that delivers high-fidelity point clouds and high-resolution orthophotos from the same flight. Even during long collection days and low sun angles, the integrated camera will keep up with the LiDAR.

Seamlessly upgradable for urban mapping

The system also offers our customers the ultimate flexibility. The sensor pod can be upgraded with four additional oblique cameras and turn the LiDAR system into a 3D city mapping machine. This configuration is also known as the Leica CityMapper-2. The unique modularity offers users a long-term upgrade path as their our business continues to grow.

High performance

With 2 MHz pulse repetition frequency and sensitivity collection optics, Leica TerrainMapper-2 increases data collection rate versus flying height, allowing you to fly larger swaths for any given point density. Achieve more efficient flight planning and even point distribution for flying heights from 300 – 5,500 m AGL with up to 35 pulses in the air and with no range gate limitations.
