e-LAS Software for Drone LiDAR

The e-LAS software combines performance, speed and ease of use! The goal of e-LAS is to achieve the best possible relative and absolute accuracy with the selected sensor configuration! Its optimized algorithms offer unbeatable processing speeds. In less than 5 minutes you can obtain your calibrated, aligned, adjusted, colorized and georeferenced point cloud (LAS). Use the high performance of your INS to precisely geolocate aerial images and subsequently use them in photogrammetry software.
