DroneXperts is a pioneer enterprise in integrating drones in civil applications, e.g. providing specialized andcertified training, delivering drone-mapping services, and offering drone-related sensors and products. Withthis regard, DroneXperts is strongly interested in providing accurate yet cost-efficient laser-scanning solutionsfor forest and woodland inventory. Geo-localizing individual trees and characterizing them, and identifying theforest understory have great values in many forestry sectors. Using an active, multi-return, multispectralairborne ranging system, these tasks can be significantly simplified. In this project, CGQ will evaluate amulti-spectral, LiDAR integrated system onboard a drone with an oblique viewpoint for 3D mapping of forests'top canopy and understory. The solutions that will be developed in this project will allow the company to solveits problem regarding providing efficient and cost-effective service to the forestry sector. This solution isunique in the current state-of-the-art in the sense that it integrates multispectral imagery, ranging, and visualartificial intelligence for forestry applications.

DroneXperts是一家将无人机整合到民用领域的先锋企业，提供专业和认证培训，提供无人机测绘服务，以及提供无人机相关传感器和产品。在这方面，DroneXperts非常有兴趣为森林和林地库存提供准确而经济高效的激光扫描解决方案。对树木进行地理定位和特征描述，以及确定森林下层植被，在许多林业部门具有重要价值。使用主动、多回波、多光谱机载测距系统，这些任务可以大大简化。在该项目中，CGQ将评估无人机上的多光谱激光雷达集成系统，该系统具有倾斜视角，可用于森林顶部冠层和下层植被的3D测绘。该项目将开发的解决方案将使该公司能够解决向林业部门提供高效和具有成本效益的服务的问题。该解决方案在当前最先进的技术中是独一无二的，因为它集成了多光谱图像、测距和林业应用的视觉人工智能。
