LiDAR acquisition of the Scheldt river in Flanders

Lidar data acquisition of the Scheldt estuary in Antwerp.

New heights reached! In the spring of 2023, BSF Swissphoto reached a  pivotal milestone, utilizing our cutting-edge Riegl VQ780II-S LiDAR  scanner to expertly map a significant 112 kmĀ² section of the iconic  Scheldt river. This encompassed the sprawling expanse of Europe's  second-largest port, Antwerp. During low tide, we captured a  comprehensive point cloud with a minimum point density of 8 points per  square meter, ensuring a remarkable accuracy of 5 cm in elevation and 10  cm in position. Our meticulously acquired and processed data has been  entrusted to our esteemed client, 'De Vlaamse Waterweg nv', empowering  them to meticulously monitor and manage this vital waterway. At BSF  Swissphoto we are already busy preparing to surpass this successful  project again next year. Together we will continue to push the  boundaries of precision and reliability!
