GreenValley LiPOS S1

LiDAR point cloud accuracy depends entirely on how well the system knows where the sensor was and how it was oriented at every moment of the flight. The GreenValley LiPOS S1 is a high-precision integrated position and orientation system that provides the trajectory and attitude data LiDAR systems need to produce geometrically accurate point clouds, combining a high-performance MEMS IMU, GNSS OEM module, and GreenValley's independently developed LiNav post-processing software in a single compact hardware unit.

• Post-processing position accuracy to 1 cm horizontal, 2 cm vertical: The LiPOS S1 delivers survey-grade navigation performance across airborne, vehicle-mounted, and handheld or backpack LiDAR deployments, with attitude accuracy to 0.006 degrees in roll and pitch and 0.019 degrees in heading after post-processing with LiNav.
• Plug-and-play operation with no mandatory initialisation: The system starts operation immediately upon power-on with no alignment sequence required, making it practical for frequent mission cycles where time on the ground reduces productive survey hours.
• High-precision PPK processing through LiNav software: Advanced error modelling for RTK and IMU enhances ambiguity resolution accuracy and speed. The LiNav software has been under continuous development since 2007, with over 200 versions released and field validation across diverse terrain in more than 50 countries.
• Robust outlier rejection for reliable trajectory quality: Intelligent filtering and rejection of multipath and other harmful GNSS measurements reduces manual QC burden and improves trajectory consistency in environments with variable signal conditions.
• Multi-platform compatibility with leading tactical IMUs: Supports STIM300, CPT7, EPSON G-series, and other IMUs, enabling integration across GreenValley and third-party LiDAR platforms.

Overview and Who It's For

The GreenValley LiPOS S1 is GreenValley's standard-grade position and orientation system, equipped with a MEMS gyroscope offering a bias instability of 0.5 degrees per hour and an angle random walk of 0.1 degrees per root second. It delivers the same 1 cm horizontal and 2 cm vertical post-processing position accuracy as the G1, with roll and pitch attitude accuracy to 0.006 degrees. The S1 is suited for survey and mapping workflows where high position accuracy is the primary requirement and the attitude performance of the S1 IMU is appropriate for the operational conditions. The complete system pairs the LiPOS S1 POS hardware with GreenValley's LiNav post-processing software, which handles trajectory computation, PPK processing, multi-dimensional filtering, and loose and tight coupling integration modes.

Primary verticals:

• Civil and Power: Airborne and mobile LiDAR for powerline inspection, infrastructure survey, and topographic mapping where trajectory accuracy underpins deliverable quality.
• Forestry and Environmental: UAV LiDAR campaigns requiring reliable attitude data for accurate canopy height models and terrain deliverables.
• Survey and Mapping: Geospatial and cadastral survey operations using GreenValley or compatible third-party LiDAR platforms that require a standalone high-precision POS solution.
• Mining: Mobile and airborne LiDAR for stockpile, pit wall, and site survey applications where position accuracy supports volumetric measurement reliability.
