The RIEGL LMS-Q560 gives access to the detailed target parameters by digitizing the echo signal online during data acquisition, and subsequently through off-line waveform analysis. This method is especially valuable when dealing with difficult tasks, such as canopy height investigation or target classification.
The operational parameters of the RIEGL LMS-Q560 can be configured to cover a wide field of applications. Comprehensive interface features support smooth integration of the instrument into complete airborne acquisition systems.
The instrument makes use of the time-of-flight distance measurement principle with nanosecond infrared pulses, and fast opto-mechanical beam scanning providing absolutely linear, unidirectional and parallel scan lines. The instrument is extremely rugged, therefore ideally suited for the installation on aircraft. Also, it is compact and lightweight enough to be installed in small single-engine planes, helicopters or RPVs. The instrument needs only a single voltage power supply and GPS timing signals to provide online monitoring data while logging the precisely time-stamped and digitized echo signal data to the rugged RIEGL Data Recorder.
