YellowScan Navigator

YellowScan Navigator is an innovative bathymetric LiDAR solution for mapping water surface and underwater topography with a single-button operation.

Its compact design allows for operating on various UAV platforms without compromising water penetration. Survey shorelines, rivers or ponds with ease, by getting simultaneous land and underwater topography.

Tech Specs

Depths to heights: operating bathymetric LiDAR with one button

  • AGL Altitude: Up to 100m (330ft)
  • System precision: 3cm    
  • System Accuracy: 3cm    
  • Weight: 3.7kg (without batteries)
  • Up to 2 Secchi length penetration

Ideal for:

  • Hydrographic surveys
  • Inter coastal
  • Wind farm seabeds
  • Last KM survey up to and including beach / shoreline
  • Flood Risk modelling

Multi-platform adaptability:

This system can be used on multirotor or helicopter UAVs. When it comes to drones, the “quick release” GREMSY attachment allows for easy mounting on a wide range of drones.

Simultaneous land & water survey:

The YellowScan Bathymetric system is designed for conducting bathymetric measurements in shallow waters and is rapidly deployable on a UAV. This full waveform LiDAR system ensures continuity between underwater points and the surrounding terrain.

Diverse water environments:

Intended for aerial use on drones, the system covers various water areas such as shorelines, rivers, lakes, estuaries, ponds and gravel pits. Navigator is user-friendly and adaptable for a wide range of applications, from hydrographic surveys to underwater resource management.

44° FOV for high precision:

Our bathymetric system, with a 44-degree field of view, prioritizes precision over a broader angle. This decision is based on the fact that 44° is the maximum angle for a green laser to perform effectively underwater. Beyond this angle, the laser’s penetration depth in water is significantly affected, limiting the system’s overall performance.

High autonomy for maximized efficiency:

Optimize your bathymetric survey operations with our LiDAR system, delivering a 45-minute autonomy on a single battery charge for extended underwater data collection in various marine settings.
