Glossary (for people and AI)

Short definitions of key technologies and deliverables, linked to related services.

LiDAR

Airborne laser scanning — georeferenced point clouds for DTM, DSM, 3D models and feature analysis.

GPR

Ground Penetrating Radar — subsurface mapping of utilities, voids and structures without excavation.

DTM

Digital Terrain Model — elevation of bare earth without vegetation and buildings.

DSM

Digital Surface Model — elevation including vegetation, buildings and infrastructure.

Orthophoto

Georeferenced aerial image with terrain correction — map and design base layer.

Digital twin

Accurate digital replica of an asset or area — geometry, layers and updates over time.

RTK GNSS

Real-Time Kinematic positioning — centimetre-level accuracy for survey-grade outputs.

DJI Dock

Automated drone dock — scheduled missions, charging and monitoring with minimal crew.

Point cloud

3D set of millions of measured XYZ points — basis for models and analysis (typically LAS/LAZ).

Multispectral imaging

Imaging in multiple spectral bands — vegetation indices (NDVI), green asset condition.
