Mobile mapping uses a vehicle-mounted platform equipped with LiDAR sensors, 360° cameras, and GNSS/IMU systems to collect high-density geospatial data along roads, railways, utility corridors, and urban environments.
Engineered for environments inaccessible to vehicles, backpack mobile mapping enables data collection in tight, rugged, or hazardous spaces.
Ideal for documenting transportation corridors, utility lines, and critical infrastructure conditions.
Eliminates the need for repeat field visits by capturing rich, high quality data the first time improving quality control and decision-making.
In Fall 2019, CompassData completed a high-precision aerial and mobile mapping project across 35 square miles of Winter Park, Colorado, covering rugged terrain ranging from 8,500 to 12,500 feet. Under urgent conditions, CompassData deployed within 24 hours, installing aerial targets and capturing both LiDAR and oblique/nadir imagery with the Leica CityMapper sensor.
Using drone and mobile mapping, terrestrial surveys, and a network of local base stations, CompassData delivered a rich geospatial dataset including LiDAR point clouds, orthoimagery, planimetry, 2-ft contours, and 360° street-level views. Despite challenging logistics, the project was delivered within 90 days—on time, under budget, and exceeding accuracy standards.
Winter Park’s Planning Director praised the results: “They exceeded what they said they would do.” Final deliverables surpassed ASPRS accuracy recommendations, supported by FAA-qualified software (CompassAA & CompassTA), ensuring Winter Park Resort has reliable 3D geospatial data for planning, infrastructure, and development.
