Manned Aircraft LiDAR Surveys for Large-Scale Projects: Faster, More Accurate Data with AB Surveying and Development

Updated: Sep 6


Aerial LiDAR Surveying

At AB Surveying and Development, we set ourselves apart by prioritizing efficiency, accuracy, and flexibility in all our LiDAR surveying projects. While many providers rely on drones for aerial surveys, we use manned aircraft—specifically, the Cessna 172K—to achieve superior results in less time. Our commitment to using manned aircraft is part of our ongoing mission to lead in LiDAR surveying for large-scale areas, offering unparalleled coverage and precision.

The Manned Aircraft Advantage: Faster and More Accurate Surveys

When it comes to aerial LiDAR surveys, speed and accuracy matter. Drones typically operate at lower altitudes of 60 to 120 meters and require up to 15-20 hours to cover 800 hectares. In contrast, our Cessna 172K aircraft flies at altitudes between 600 and 750 meters, covering the same area in just 2-3 hours. This not only allows us to survey larger areas more quickly but also ensures a higher quality of data collection.

Key Benefits of Using Manned Aircraft for LiDAR Surveys

  1. Higher Efficiency and Coverage: With the ability to fly at higher altitudes, our Cessna 172K captures more returns (up to 10), covering vast areas in a fraction of the time it would take a drone. This efficiency is crucial for large-scale projects where time and coverage are essential.
  2. Superior Data Accuracy: Our aircraft's advanced LiDAR system offers a maximum measuring range of 2,400 meters and delivers superior point cloud data accuracy of 20mm. This level of precision is ideal for projects requiring high-resolution data, such as topographic mapping, infrastructure planning, and environmental monitoring.
  3. High-Quality Ortho Images: The Cessna 172K captures ortho images with a ground sampling distance (GSD) of less than 5 cm, providing incredibly detailed and accurate visual data. This clarity is particularly beneficial for applications in construction, urban planning, and land management.

Unmatched Flexibility with In-House Expertise

At AB Surveying and Development, we are one of the few surveying companies worldwide to use manned aircraft for LiDAR surveys. Our approach is further enhanced by having an in-house pilot and an exclusive permit from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), allowing us to fly at any time, except in restricted areas like military zones. This unique capability ensures we deliver timely and precise surveying services, regardless of the project's scale or complexity.
