Waveform Processing Airborne Laser Scanning System VQ®580 II In further development of the RIEGL VQ-580 Airborne Laser Scanner Series - the RIEGL VQ-580 II presents itself in a completly new design that successfully takes up the already proven qualities and leads them to a new standard of performance and user-friendliness. Its new sophisticated design allows to further reduce the overall weight and enables the seamless integration into stabilized platforms, e.g. standard gyromounts, and also into even small hatches. The scanner is well suited for the use in manned aircrafts like helicopters, small fixed-wing aircrafts, or ultra-light planes. Based on RIEGL's proven Waveform-LiDAR technology, the VQ-580 II provides highly accurate point clouds, excellent vertical target resolution, calibrated reflectance readings, and pulse shape deviation for unsurpassed information content on each single measurement. With a measurement rate of up to 1,250,000 measurements/second and an extremely wide field of view of 75°, the scanner offers itself as the first choice for airborne surveying applications like corridor mapping, city modeling, and agriculture & forestry. The laser wavelength makes it especially suited for measurements on ice and snow. An easy to remove CFast® storage card and an integrated Solid State Disk and/or the option for streaming the scan data via LAN TCP/IP interface are provided for data transfer and storage. • high accuracy ranging based on RIEGL Waveform-LiDAR technology • high laser pulse repetition rate up to 2MHz • measurement rate up to 1,250,000 measurements/sec • perfectly linear and parallel scan lines • wide field of view of 75° • excellently suited to measure on snow & ice • interfaces for up to 5 optional cameras • mechanical and electrical interface for IMU/GNSS integration • removeable storage card and integrated Solid State Disk (SSD) for data storage • compact, & lightweight design • compatible with stabilized platforms and even small hatches • seamless integration and compatibility with other RIEGL ALS systems and software packages % RIEGL USER MEASUREMENT systems Typical applications include • Corridor Mapping • Agriculture & Forestry • Especially suited for Glacier Mapping and Snowfield Mapping • Moist Grassland Mapping • City Modeling visit our website www.riegl.com LASER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS Airborne Laser Scanning
