The lightweight and compact sensor uses an innovative scanning pattern for the optimal coverage of complex and vertical targets, such as high-voltage transmission towers or building facades. This scan pattern employs a nadir/forward/backward scanning geometry and a 100° wide field of view for exceptional target coverage in a single pass. The RIEGL VUX-120 is ideal for corridor mapping missions, providing users with excellent high-resolution surveying data while saving time and money.
James Van Rens, Strategic Advisor RIEGL Group & Sr. VP RIEGL USA, who accepted the award on behalf of RIEGL, commented: “The RIEGL VUX-120 is a powerful and versatile solution that exceeds the needs of the geospatial industry for high performance, engineering, and survey grade accuracy LiDAR. The VUX-120’s long ranging capability offers a cost-effective solution for both unmanned and manned aircraft integrations alike, providing economies of scale to enable a quicker return on investment. It is a privilege to see the expansion of performance capabilities and usage of RIEGL LiDAR in parallel to the reduction of sensor form.”
