LiDAR point cloud processing specialist
LiDAR, Photogrammetry & 3D Mapping
Worldwide LiDAR and photogrammetry services for point-cloud processing, classification, terrain models, orthomosaics, contours, survey control, and 3D mapping.
Reliable LiDAR and photogrammetry delivery depends on more than producing a visually impressive point cloud. Coordinate systems, control, classification, surface logic, density, gaps, and cross-deliverable consistency determine whether the result can support engineering or GIS work.
I support workflows from survey planning and GCP/ICP design through point-cloud review, classification, terrain and surface generation, orthomosaics, contours, CAD/GIS preparation, and web-ready visualisation.
WHEN THIS HELPS
Problems this service addresses
- Raw point clouds are too large or unstructured for downstream use
- Ground classification needs quality review
- DTM, DSM, contours, and orthomosaics do not align
- Survey control and coordinate references are unclear
- Engineering teams need CAD/GIS deliverables rather than raw sensor data
DELIVERY METHOD
A practical, reviewable workflow
Point-cloud processing
Clean noise, classify points, inspect overlaps and gaps, and organise data into manageable tiles and classes.
Surface production
Generate DTM, DSM, hillshade, contours, elevation products, and orthomosaics with consistent extents and references.
Quality assurance
Review checkpoints, surface artefacts, cross-sections, completeness, and consistency across LAS, raster, vector, and CAD outputs.
Delivery optimisation
Prepare file naming, metadata, web visualisation, and handover documentation around the client’s actual software and workflow.
DELIVERABLES

COMMON QUESTIONS
Before starting an engagement
Can you work from an already processed point cloud?
Yes. The scope can start from an existing classified or unclassified cloud and focus on QA, surface generation, CAD/GIS linework, tiling, attributes, or visualisation.
How is accuracy communicated?
Accuracy should be tied to control and checkpoints, the survey method, coordinate system, and the limitations of the supplied data. The reporting format is agreed before production.
AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE
