Research

Complete system for easy deployment in the field.

Proven, reliable products developed by LiDAR mapping experts

Routescene are proud to be trusted by numerous research institutions and universities around the world.

Specific examples of LiDAR 3D mapping used in research include:

  • identification and mapping of landforms and land movement
  • mapping vegetative structure to understand wildlife-habitat relationships
  • climate change impacts
  • mapping land cover and land use
  • assessing flood risk
  • forestry and forest fire research
  • active tectonic studies

Our systems are designed to be robust, durable and immediately operational. They do not need the internet to work so you can undertake surveys securely from all remote locations wherever you are. This is particularly important if you are working with confidential or sensitive data.

Case Study: LiDAR forestry surveys to inform carbon reduction policies

The aim of this project was to characterize the forest canopy structure and determine the dominant tree species. Structure characterization is a key dataset to better understand forest function. Undertaken by the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison), USA, this was part of a wider project to understand how water and carbon interact across a variety of landscapes including forests.

Case Study: Assessing vegetation to establish forest fire severity

Understanding the characteristics of a fire including its’ severity and distribution within a forest will quantify its’ impact. Toledo University in Spain assessed the site of the Yeste fire in the province of Albacete, SE Spain. The aim was to understand how LiDAR data can be used to predict fire risk and develop more precise and site-specific fire impact studies.
