Engineering-Grade LiDAR for Utilities and Infrastructure
EchoONE captures high-density, georeferenced LiDAR data suitable for linear infrastructure and broad-area mapping projects. With configurable 400 kHz and 600 kHz laser pulse repetition frequencies, operators can optimize performance for extended range or increased effective point density based on mission requirements.
Its long-range scanning capability, wide swath coverage, and canopy penetration performance make it especially effective for utility corridors and vegetation management, while maintaining survey-grade accuracy for transportation and infrastructure modeling.
Engineering-Grade LiDAR Deliverables
EchoONE produces secure, colorized, georeferenced point clouds designed for:
- Utility and powerline corridor mapping
- Vegetation encroachment analysis
- Topographic and boundary surveying
- Transportation corridor design
- Infrastructure documentation and asset inventory
- Government geospatial programs requiring NDAA-compliant systems
Georeferenced point clouds are generated onboard in real time, enabling pilot-side LAS quality verification prior to leaving the project site.
Specifications
Key Capabilities for Engineering-Grade UAV LiDAR
EchoONE operates with configurable 400 kHz or 600 kHz pulse repetition frequencies, allowing operators to prioritize either extended range or increased point density.
The 400 kHz configuration provides up to 270 m maximum measuring range at 20% reflectivity targets under nominal conditions, while the 600 kHz configuration supports higher effective pulse density with up to 225 m maximum measuring range under the same conditions.
With up to eight returns per pulse and 0.7 m minimum target separation, the system supports canopy penetration and reliable ground modeling beneath vegetation. A 90° horizontal field of view combined with four vertical scan angles enhances swath coverage while capturing vertical infrastructure such as poles and building facades.
EchoONE delivers 10 mm range accuracy and 5 mm precision (1 sigma), with 1.5 cm RMSEz absolute vertical accuracy at 120 m under test conditions.
The integrated Inertial Labs KERNEL-210 tactical-grade IMU supports RTK and PPK workflows, providing stable positioning and reliable georeferenced outputs when verified to ground control.
EchoONE is compliant with:
FY2020 NDAA Section 848
FY2023 NDAA Section 817
The system is engineered to support regulated infrastructure and government data-collection programs requiring protected supply chains and secure operational frameworks.
Georeferenced point clouds are generated onboard in real time, enabling:
- On-site pilot QC of LAS files
- Reduced reflight risk
- API support for third-party integrations
Onboard storage includes 512 GB with WLAN and WiFi communication capabilities.
EchoONE includes a 5 MP global shutter camera with optional Sony ILX-LR1 61 MP support. Colorized point clouds provide additional contextual data beyond intensity-only returns, and the optional high-resolution camera allows simultaneous orthomosaic and inspection imagery capture.
