It combines high-performance lidar technology, versatile sensor support and intelligent data processing to provide a practical and flexible solution for professionals in road surveying, asset management and infrastructure documentation. Its lidar system uses fourth-generation real-time waveform processing to achieve a scan rate of 2 million points per second and 200 revolutions per second, producing point cloud data with 5 mm accuracy and 3 mm precision. This level of detail allows for the identification of fine surface characteristics and features, supporting comprehensive asset inventories and condition assessments. The system’s long-range, multi-cycle laser technology enables high-density data capture up to 250 m in vehicle-mounted applications.</p> <p><strong><a target="_blank" href="https://www.gpsworld.com/tag/chc-navigation/" data-type="post_tag" data-id="3287">CHC Navigation</a>, CHCNAV.com </strong></p> <p><p>The post <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com/surveying-and-mapping-launchpad-data-collection-and-mobile-mapping/">New data collection and mobile mapping software used in surveying and mapping projects</a> first appeared on <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com">GPS World</a>.</p></p>
