Transmission-Corridor LiDAR Classification
Classification of 4,300 km of powerline corridor point clouds into 18 classes, with vegetation-encroachment and danger-tree reporting.
Where the client started
A European transmission operator’s annual vegetation-compliance cycle depended on classifying nine terabytes of helicopter LiDAR within a fixed regulatory window — and their previous vendor had missed it two years running.
The OutcomeWhere they ended up
The full 4,300 km was delivered six weeks inside the compliance window — the operator compressed its field-verification season, prioritised cutting crews by violation severity, and renewed for a multi-year term.
How we delivered
Automated macro-classification tuned on the operator’s corridor characteristics, followed by manual refinement of conductors, towers and vegetation
Catenary modelling and clearance analysis against the operator’s regulatory clearance envelopes
Danger-tree identification combining height, lean and fall-radius geometry
Per-tile QC dashboards giving the client live visibility of progress and quality
- 18-class LAS 1.4 point clouds
- Clearance-violation reports by span
- Danger-tree register with coordinates
- PLS-CADD-ready outputs
- Live production QC dashboard
