SatLab Geosolutions APUS-MX, is a lightweight and compact UAV LiDAR system, that seamlessly integrates advanced laser scanning technology, an industrial-grade camera, and a sophisticated inertial navigation system.
The Apus-MX is a highly portable and rapidly deployable drone-based aerial survey solution. It combines an advanced IMU and an industrial-grade 45 MP RGB orthographic camera with a powerful long-range LiDAR scanner, which features an 80° field of view and a maximum range of 1200 meters. This allows the Apus-MX to operate at higher altitudes and capture more data in a single flight, increasing both efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
SatLab’s utilized the Apus-MX for a large-scale mining data acquisition, documenting its findings in a case study.
In recent years, the rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) LiDAR scanning technology, has provided new technical means for providing high-precision topographic maps and DEMs for mining exploration, monitoring and design.
Apus drone LiDAR solution can capture precise measurements of the terrain, including elevation, slope, and vegetation coverage, with centimeter accuracy. This level of detail is crucial for mining operations, as it allows for better planning, monitoring, and management of the site.
