The ARGON GEO is a customised aircraft that supports an Ultralight Measurement System, incorporating aerial laser scanning, adhering to the new 560 kg MTOW regulations.
The Aerial Ultralight Measurement System is a high-precision measuring platform that integrates an active laser sensor and a photogrammetric camera with an INS / GNSS system, aided ground segment, mobile reference station and mobile meteorological information system.
The primary task is to obtain a three-dimensional, dense cloud of points with known X, Y and Z co-ordinates combined with high-resolution colour photographs. The data, after processing, are used primarily for the production of Numerical Terrain and Coverage Models and orthophotomaps.
System Advantages
- High precision
- High scanning speed of 200 lines / sec
- Pulse frequency up to 380 kHz
- Narrow beam, hence high spatial resolution, of the laser
- Possibility to register multiple beam ejection – unlimited number of echoes of a single beam
- Compact and lightweight
- Fast and accurate measurement of large objects
- High accuracy (comparable to classic geodetic measurements)
- The ability to scan hard-to-reach places and in industrial plants by remote sensing
- Easy access to measurement data
- Measurement independent of lighting
- Automation of the computational process (automatic alignment, 3D sections and 3D models).
