About YellowScan Explorer

Explorer combines a long-range lidar with integrated GNSS-inertial positioning in a 1.8-kilogram payload. It provides stated precision of two centimetres, a 360-degree field of view and operation from altitudes reaching approximately 300 metres above ground.

The system records multiple returns through vegetation and supports aerial and mobile mapping across terrain, forests, corridors and urban sites. YellowScan supplies calibrated hardware, optional RGB imaging, CloudStation processing, batteries, training and technical support.
