New results from Optech Titan field tests at AGU Fall Meeting

December 8, 2015 — Teledyne Optech is pleased to announce our participation at the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in San Francisco on December 14-18. Feel free to stop by exhibit booth #1206 and check out our display at the Poster Session from 1:40 to 6:00 pm in the Poster Hall. Here you will hear about some of the latest successes of the Optech Titan multispectral lidar for target classification and shallow-water bathymetry.

The poster presentation titled “New, Flexible Applications with the Multispectral Titan Airborne Lidar” (# EP23A-0940) will showcase some exciting new developments for the Titan. This includes a new pixel-based approach to target classification, which uses Titan’s three laser channels to divide targets into four classes (buildings, trees, roads and grass) with 94% accuracy. The Titan’s bathymetry performance has also met and exceeded its predicted depth penetration in clear water, with field tests in Canada showing depth measurements down to 23 m below the water surface. These results break open new applications for multispectral airborne lidars, including coastal/inland water mapping, environmental modeling, and natural resource management.
