RIEGL LiDAR TECHNOLOGY for Airborne Topo-Bathymetry Château d’If, Marseille, France: 3D topo-bathymetric data acquired with RIEGL VQ-840-G Where water meets land, changes take place. Close monitoring of these is a necessity. In shallow water, however, surveying from a boat becomes a challenge. This is where Airborne Lidar Bathymetry (ALB) is of significant advantage. The strengths of LiDAR technology in a hydrographic context are the collection of seamless data sets that span the land/water interface, enabling high-resolution surveying of both above and below water surface topology with high efficiency.

Coastal Mapping Efficiency for wide areas ... ALB is the technology of choice for surveying shallow water zones in coastal areas. In a single data acquisition mission both terrestrial and submarine topography of a shoreline are covered. RIEGL provides several topo-bathymetric system models for integration with crewed fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters. These sophisticated dual channel systems employ multiple laser wavelengths to improve ranging performance, depth penetration and enhance resolution of targets above and below the water surface. Subject to water turbidity and bottom...

Inland Water Survey Natural habitat monitoring Rivers, alluvial forests, lakes, and floodplains represent a special challenge for surveying because of limited navigability for boats and the significant effort and risk to surveyors conducting manual depth measurement. ALB is therefore an effective alternative. It also provides high-fidelity data sets of complex structures – thanks to its multitarget-resolution capability that increases vertical density and object detail for a very accurate 3D representation of the environment. It is also very effective at penetrating dense vegetation to...

RIEGL LiDAR TECHNOLOGY for Airborne Topo-Bathymetry Topo-bathymetric LiDAR data acquisition and processing software RiACQUIRE RIEGL’s dedicated software suite for data acquisition and processing supports mission preparation and parameter optimization, as well as data management and storage. In post-processing, RiHYDRO tools support data classification, generation of a water surface models, and the application of water refraction correction according to refraction indices. Full waveform processing and waveform averaging can be optionally applied to maximize depth penetration success....
