The TrueView 550 Advances the 500 Series with Dual Mapping Cameras, Enhanced Colorization, and High-Performance LiDAR

The TrueView 550 advances GeoCue’s proven TrueView 539 and 540 platforms, delivering improved precision, accuracy, and overall performance for demanding professional aerial mapping applications.

Combining next-generation LiDAR technology with GeoCue’s TrueNav positioning system and two integrated 20 MP cameras, the TrueView 550 captures highly detailed 3D data with enhanced imagery for accurate point cloud colorization and greater visual context. The dual-camera configuration expands imaging capabilities, helping surveying and engineering professionals capture both precise measurements and rich RGB information in a single flight.

Designed to deliver performance approaching top-tier aerial LiDAR systems at a more accessible price point, the TrueView 550 provides an ideal balance of accuracy, imaging capability, performance, and value for professional surveying, engineering, infrastructure, corridor mapping, and other high-accuracy mapping applications.

LP360 Drone

Drone LiDAR and photo processing workflow made simple

Use LP360 Drone for

  • Intuitive workflow
  • Multi-flight import and processing
  • GIS interface allowing combination with other geospatial data
  • Powerful point cloud visualization with multiple and synchronized windows

LP360 Photo

We have integrated directly into our drone mapping processing software, LP360 Drone, a Photo engine to produce fast backdrop orthophotos for your LiDAR project.

LP360 Photo is the LP360 Drone add-on for Ortho mapping:

  • Rapidly create your orthophoto backdrop in a completely integrated workflow
  • Efficient fast processing leveraging the LiDAR data with the photos?

LP360 Photo additional features:

  • Export photo package to your 3rd party Photogrammetry software
  • Support most common 3rd party sensors (DJI Mavic 3E, DJI Phantom 4 RTK and DJI Zenmuse P1)

LP360 Strip Align

Data can exhibit small geometric inconsistence, especially when combining data from multiple flights. Strip Align for LP360 Drone detects and corrects these errors via an application of sensor-specific mathematical modeling. Strip Align is a fully automated process with no need for users to set project-specific “tuning” parameters or to move in and out of the LP360 Drone processing environment – press a button and it works!

LP360 3D Accuracy

Automated horizontal and vertical checks remove the need for manual interaction

Use 3D Accuracy for:

  • Automatically transform your check point coordinates into you project coordinates including datum and epoch
  • “AutoTarget” – Automatically find a 3D target on a drone dataset
  • Calculation of correction for any 3D target
  • Seamless workflow to apply the correction on the point cloud
  • Use with ground control equipment

Drone Platforms

Our TrueView 3D Imaging Sensors were designed as a lightweight payload to allow flexible integrations on numerous drone platforms. We have worked with several drone providers to provide customers the complete drone mapping solution they are looking for.
