DAYTON, Ohio –
Woolpert recently doubled its aircraft fleet, for a total of six, to
accommodate the increased demand for aerial data. Woolpert also added two Leica
ALS70-HP airborne LiDAR scanners to its suite of LiDAR equipment.
“Woolpert
saw significant growth in geospatial services last year. Because of the
increased demand, combined with having several statewide mapping projects and
multiple federal programs, these were necessary additions so we can continue to
provide the level of service and high-quality data our clients have come to
expect from Woolpert,” said Jeff Lovin, Woolpert senior vice president and
director of geospatial services.
Woolpert
purchased its first LiDAR sensor in 1999 and has owned multiple LiDAR sensors
over the years, including the entire Leica ALS series. Woolpert’s most recent
purchase of the two ALS70-HP scanners will allow the company to acquire data at
the same point density at twice the speed and in half the time at higher
altitudes for many projects.
In
addition to the two Leica ALS70-HP airborne LiDAR scanners, Woolpert also owns
a Leica ADS 80 SH81 and ADS 80 SH82 digital sensor, Leica RCD 105 digital
camera, Leica RC30 aerial camera, Werhli 3-OC digital oblique sensor and Optech
Gemini.
