CLOUDAR

THE WORKFLOW

From flight
to drawing.

Fly the site with LiDAR and a camera. Cloudar draws the features. Review, export, done.

01 / FLY

Laser and camera.
Same ground.

An M350 flies the site with the Zenmuse L2 laser and the P1 camera. The point cloud and the orthophoto cover the same ground, registered to your survey control.

  • LAS / LAZ
  • GeoTIFF
  • Survey control

Both inputs reach one model to identify named features.

02 / EXTRACT

One model
reads both.

Height and shape from the laser. Paint, edges and covers from the photo. Each feature is learned from the sensor that shows it, and drawn once.

  • Curbs
  • Sidewalks
  • Markings
  • Poles
  • Covers

03 / REVIEW

Check it against
what you hold.

Every feature carries its confidence. Give Cloudar the records you already have and it reports which are confirmed, which have moved, which are missing and which are new.

04 / EXPORT

Files that open
in your CAD.

A DXF on your layer standard, a feature table and a job report, all in the survey’s coordinate system. It runs on a desktop in your office; nothing is uploaded.

WHY BOTH SENSORS

Different strengths.
One model.

Shape and height. Laser returns describe the curb face, the pole and the ground.

Detail on the surface. The orthophoto makes paint, covers and edges visible.

More than colour. Both inputs reach the model. The photo identifies; it does not just tint the cloud.

KEEP EXPLORING
