Terrestrial
LiDAR Scanning
Terrestrial LiDAR scanning captures millions of precise 3D measurements per second, producing a complete digital replica of any structure, site, or environment. Meyer Land Surveying uses state-of-the-art laser scanners to deliver as-built documentation, structural monitoring, and detailed 3D models for engineering, architecture, and facility management.
What is Terrestrial LiDAR?
Terrestrial LiDAR scanning captures millions of precise 3D measurements per second, producing a complete digital replica of any structure, site, or environment. Meyer Land Surveying uses state-of-the-art laser scanners to deliver as-built documentation, structural monitoring, and detailed 3D models for engineering, architecture, and facility management.
Meyer Land Surveying has delivered terrestrial lidar services across Southern California since 2015, combining licensed expertise with state-of-the-art technology to produce precise, compliant, and timely results for every client.
How We Deliver Terrestrial LiDAR
Scan Planning
Scanner positions are planned to ensure complete coverage of the target with sufficient overlap between scans.
Control Integration
Scanner positions are tied to the project's survey control network, ensuring correct georeferencing.
Data Acquisition
High-density scans are collected from all planned positions, capturing the full geometry of the structure or site.
Registration & Processing
Individual scans are registered together in Trimble RealWorks to create a single, seamless point cloud.
Deliverable Production
The registered point cloud is used to produce as-built drawings, 3D models, cross-sections, and other deliverables.
Representative Projects
