LiDAR Aerial Mapping

From raw airborne or drone LiDAR to publication-ready terrain

Mapping bureaux and geospatial companies rely on AutoTerra Pro Spatial and LiDAR Pro to process airborne and drone-borne LiDAR datasets at scale. GPU-accelerated processing, AI classification, and full raster-output pipelines keep production schedules on track even for national-scale surveys.

Mining

Stockpile volumes, strata mapping, and pit survey

Mining operations demand frequent, accurate volume calculations from survey data. AutoTerra streamlines the complete mine survey workflow — from field data import to stockpile volume reports and strata-wise cross-sections — with the accuracy and auditability that mining engineers need.

UAV & Drone Mapping

From drone to deliverable — in a single workspace

The UAV Photogrammetry add-on (available for AutoTerra Spatial and Pro Spatial) closes the gap between field capture and final survey output. Import raw image sets from any multi-rotor or fixed-wing UAV, run bundle adjustment and dense matching, and deliver georeferenced orthoimages, DSMs, and classified point clouds — all within your existing AutoTerra project.

Because the output feeds directly into AutoTerra's LiDAR classification and terrain pipeline, UAV-derived point clouds can be classified, filtered, and used for DTM generation, volume calculations, and cross-section profiles without exporting to a separate application.
