PCMaster Pro

The LiDAR payload consists of a LiDAR, and an INS (optionally can also include an RGB camera). The data gathered from both devices must be fused together to get LiDAR points geo-referenced – transformed from the LiDAR reference frame to geographic coordinates. PCMasterPro software is designed just for that. Additionally, it observes and corrects for misalignments between the INS and the lasers of the LiDAR. PCMasterPro software takes INS trajectory generated by a Post-Processed Kinematics software, LiDAR scan files, and camera images generated by the LiDAR payload system and converts them to point clouds in LAS format for further processing.

All LiDAR Payload units are calibrated and are shipped to customers with these boresighting values already saved onto the devices. This removes time wasted in aligning laser offsets, accounting for angle scale factor errors, adjusting linear and angular offsets and results in a streamlined, convenient processing experience.
