LiDAR Terrain Models

Engineering firms, construction managers, and developers across Texas rely on Terrascope Labs for advanced LiDAR drone services. Our FAA-certified pilots and state-of-the-art sensors deliver survey-grade data that saves projects both time and money — without sacrificing accuracy.

Precision You Can Build On

Capture millions of data points per second with centimeter-level accuracy. Our LiDAR-equipped DJI Matrice 350 drones deliver precise 3D mapping solutions — even through dense vegetation or rugged terrain.

Key Benefits

Unmatched Accuracy
Centimeter-level elevation and position data for survey-grade DTMs/DSMs and tight tolerances on design work.
Rapid Data Capture
Millions of points per second—cover large sites in a single flight and turn deliverables around in 24–48 hours.
Penetrates Vegetation
Multi-return laser pulses reach the ground under canopy to produce clean ground points for grading and drainage planning.
Versatile Applications
Topographic surveys, cut/fill analysis, as-builts, utilities, flood modeling, corridor mapping, and more.
Better Decisions, Faster
CAD/GIS-ready deliverables: colorized point clouds (.las/.laz), DTMs/DSMs, contours, and orthomosaics in your coordinate system.

Use Cases

From highway expansions to utility corridor planning, our LiDAR mapping empowers engineers and surveyors with data you can rely on.
