Teledyne Optech, a Teledyne Technologies [NYSE:TDY] company and global leader in advanced lidar sensors, announced they have signed an agreement with Aerial Surveys International (ASI) to sell a Galaxy T2000. Additionally, they will upgrade their existing Galaxy Prime to a Galaxy T2000. They will also install both sensors in the productivity-doubling G2 Sensor System. This package delivers a hyper-realistic mapping solution for aerial survey applications. In fact, organisations in need of a hyper-realistic mapping solution will find this partnership especially beneficial.
Enhancing ASI’s Mapping Capabilities
This purchase will enhance ASI’s capabilities through the effective 2-million point per second PRF of each Galaxy T2000. Moreover, by combining both sensors on the G2 Sensor System, ASI will bolster their capacity to a true, effective 4 million point per second. This provides unmatched point density with the highest available efficiency. This is thanks to their hyper-realistic mapping solution.
Mark Schubert, owner of ASI commented “Aerial Surveys International is committed to providing our customers with unsurpassed systems, solutions and staff. Our partnership with Teledyne Optech not only exemplifies this commitment, it empowers us to leverage industry-leading technology to innovatively deliver projects quickly and accurately. This commitment drives our delivery of a hyper-realistic mapping solution for our clients.”
Galaxy T2000: High-Performance Lidar Sensor
The Galaxy T2000 is engineered to point all its 2 million laser shots per second to the ground within a programmable field of view. As a result, it achieves the highest single-pass point density in the market. With faster scanning at up to 320 lines per second and the smallest laser footprint, the T2000 provides a new, unparalleled level of performance. This is especially true for applications involving small-object identification such as wire detection. In addition, it is suitable for foliage penetration.
G2 Sensor System: Dual-Sensor Efficiency
The G2 Sensor System features the unique compact form of the ALTM Galaxy, enabling maximum configuration flexibility with the option to install and operate two sensors as one system into a single aircraft portal. Furthermore, the G2 Sensor System uses the same Galaxy production workflow. This workflow processes, calibrates, co-registers and outputs survey-grade LAS files from both sensors simultaneously.
“ASI is leading the airborne mapping industry and investing heavily in technology and capacity to secure a strong future position, offering unmatched point density with maximum efficiency,” said Michel Stanier, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Teledyne Optech. “The Galaxy T2000, paired with the G2 system, represents a major leap for the Airborne Survey industry. It matches or exceeds the capabilities of Geiger Mode and Single-Photon lidar without the inherent noise and complex acquisition or processing requirements. It also delivers unprecedented densities of hundreds of points per square meter, enabling AI-based automated feature extraction. We are excited to bring this game-changing technology to market through bold, visionary companies like ASI.” Clearly, the addition of a hyper-realistic mapping solution is a transformative step for the industry.
