Designed to innovate. Internal technologies.

Designed for surveying and government missions where there is no second chance to fly, the YellowScan Venturer is a surveying-grade LiDAR system that complies with the NDAA and is designed to eliminate uncertainty in the field.

It provides teams with confidence at launch, reliable results, and complete control over locally processed data through our dedicated CloudStation software.

Exceptional performance and data density

With a speed of up to 1,500,000 points per second and a scanning frequency of up to 100 Hz, the system guarantees high point density even at operating altitudes of 100-120 m AGL. This capability allows for highly detailed digital terrain models to be obtained, even in areas with dense vegetation or complex terrain, reducing the need for additional flights and increasing operational efficiency.

Advanced detection capability and multiple echoes

With up to 5 echoes per shot and a range of 150 m, the system is capable of penetrating vegetation and capturing different layers of the surface, which significantly improves terrain modeling in forest environments or areas with irregular relief.

Operational efficiency in the field

With a typical flight time of 1 hour and low weight (2.45 kg without battery), the system integrates easily into multi-rotor and single-rotor UAVs, enabling fast and flexible missions. The 360° field of view (120° in burst mode) maximizes coverage per flight strip, optimizing productivity per mission.

(1) Accuracy, also called reproducibility or repeatability, takes into account the variation in successive measurements taken on the same target.
(2) Accuracy is the degree of conformity of a measured position with its actual (true) value.
(3) 1σ @ 50 m, nadir
(4) Theoretical maximum number of points with all shots producing the maximum number of echoes. This may vary depending on flight and survey conditions and the surveyed environment.
