Lidar USA has integrated Z+F scanners for mobile mapping into its product line.

According to the company, the Z+F Profiler is a high-speed, 360-degree scanner that provides more than 1 million points per second at up to 200 profiles per second with a range of nearly 120 meters. This product is the latest addition to the company’s HiWay Mapper series.

The company also integrated the Z+F Imager, which can be transformed into a mobile system to maximize the use of the scanner. This allows companies to provide mobile mapping services with the highest accuracy — at a reduced cost — while maintaining backward compatibility for static scanning, the company said.

Lidar USA, also known as Fagerman Technologies and based in Huntsville, Alabama, specializes in laser scanning, photogrammetry, instrumentation and geomatics.

Z+F USA, Inc. is the United States subsidiary of Z+F GmbH Germany. It manufactures high quality control equipment, wire ferrules and laser scanners.
