CANDRONE JOINS THE GEOCUE GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION NETWORK

Working with high-density point cloud data in Canada has meant building your own workflow. Hardware from one supplier, software from another, support from neither.

That changes now. Candrone has added GeoCue TrueView LiDAR systems and LP360 point cloud processing software to our portfolio. Capture and processing from one partner, supported locally.

The ACSL SOTEN IS NOW AVAILABLE IN CANADA 

MADE IN JAPAN · NDAA COMPLIANT

• Interchangeable payloads. Swap between thermal and zoom on the same airframe.

• Rated for weather. IP43 protection for rain and dust exposure.

• Built for transport. Folds down for field deployment.

ACSL Webinar

Every mapping job starts with a request, and what happens between that request and the finished deliverable is where most of the work lives. Join us and ACSL for a live walkthrough of a complete mapping mission.

See the work before you commit to it.

Live drone demos are now open! 

Specs tell you what the equipment can do. A demo shows you what the output looks like on a site like yours.

We're booking live demo sessions. Each one runs multiple flights, so you see more than one capability in a single visit:

• Mapping and photogrammetry
• Visual asset inspection
• Thermal and heat anomaly detection
• Perimeter security
• Automated dock operations

Start with a short call so we know what the flight needs to prove. Our Solutions team builds the session from there.

Fundamentals of SLAM LiDAR

Most drone operators can cover open terrain. SLAM unlocks the environments where GPS can’t.

This new course is designed for operators working in confined or GPS-denied environments.
