UAV Hyperspectral Imager + LiDAR
Description
ATHL9010 series UAV-based Hyperspectral Imager + LiDAR is a compact, lightweight third-generation UAV-mounted hyperspectral imager from Aopu Tiancheng, now integrated with a LiDAR module. The system consists of a hexacopter with high stability, a hyperspectral imager, LiDAR, large storage, GPS navigation, ground receiving workstation, and ground control system. The addition of a line-scanning LiDAR enables precise ortho-rectification of images and provides 3D terrain data, which can be analyzed alongside spectral data for new research perspectives.
ATHL9010 integrates high-resolution solid-state scanning LiDAR, hyperspectral imager, and high-precision inertial navigation, generating true-color point clouds in real-time. A single flight can quickly capture over 2 km² of point cloud data.
This UAV-based hyperspectral imager is ideal for real-time measurement of spectral information from plants, water bodies, and soil, and for obtaining spectral images. By analyzing these images, it enables studies on plant classification and growth conditions. The system’s compact design allows for both standalone measurement with a rotating platform or linear scanning system, and UAV-based remote sensing operations.
