Elevation+

High precision digital elevation modelling service

Elevation+ offers airborne based elevation surveys around the world providing 1 m or better resolution. Alongside our satellite technologies, we also own and operate airborne sensors. LiDAR data is the most cost-effective, accurate height data in production from airborne systems, with the ability to generate accurate terrain models.

Our laser scanning expertise and experience has been developed by undertaking a wide range of projects, in diverse environments such as the deserts and jungles of Africa and Asia, the coastline of the British Isles and cities across the world.

Digital Surface Models (“first surface” elevation) and Digital Terrain Models (bare earth elevation) products are available with the option of accompanying orthophotos. The orthophotos can be derived from the strength of the laser return, commonly referred to as laser intensity or from the use of an optional camera.
