Lokeren, Belgium, April 11th, 2014. Orbit GeoSpatial Technologies today announces the presentation of all new Volumetric Analysis tool for all LiDAR content at this year’s SPAR in Colorado Springs, CO, USA.
“Any LiDAR, DEM or TIN content is usefull to perform volumetric analysis. Orbit GT is the first to present a solution that can do exactly that with LiDAR from any source : Airborne, Mobile, Terrestrial, UAS“, says Peter Bonne, VP Business Development and Senior Product Manager at Orbit GT. “Image-equipped systems can use dense image matching to create a hires DEM which feeds exactly the same way into our system. Especially for all Mobile Maping content producers and construction and building site leaders, this tool will lift their work and make their life a lot easier.” You can start from a Pointcloud, a DEM or TIN, either collected by UAS using Orbit UAS Mapping, by aerial LiDAR, Mobile Mapping or other. Then define or reuse perimeters of the area at hand and choose a reference plane, Pointcloud, DEM or TIN. Clic calculate and you’re done ! The result shows volumes that have been cut or filled, and sums up totals per perimeter. An output DEM colors the cut and fill areas. Check in 2D/3D view, then export all values to clipboard or file. Volumetric Analysis settings can be saved, reused, exported. Volumetric Analysis is an add-on to the Orbit Mobile Mapping v11 Extraction solution.
