Preparing Sites for a LiDAR Scanning Project

Preparation plays an important role in achieving clear, accurate results. By addressing a few steps before scanning, professionals can optimize the process and outcomes.

• Clear obstructions – Remove items that may interfere with scanner lines.
• Ensure access – Provide entry to all relevant areas of the property.
• Set schedules – Plan scans at times with minimal site activity.
• Review objectives – Define required outputs such as CAD files or 3D models.
• Check site conditions – Anticipate weather or lighting factors that may affect drone operations.

These actions help scanning teams capture accurate data efficiently and with minimal disruption.
