Powerline / transmission line survey

Lidar is widely used for powerline and transmission line survey. Lidar data provides power transmission companies with accurate height models of the terrain beneath powerlines. It can also show the position of the towers, the sag on the wires, and any encroaching vegetation.

Lidar has long been used by the power transmission industry world-wide. It is by far the most accurate, safe and cost-effective way of monitoring power transmission lines.
