The RIEGL VQ-880-GH is a fully integrated airborne laser scanning system for combined hydrographic and topographic surveying.
The system is offered with integrated and factory-calibrated high-end GNSS/IMU system and up to two cameras. The design allows flexible application of these components to specific requirements. Complemented by a RIEGL data recorder, the RIEGL VQ-880-GH is a complete LIDAR system to be installed on various platforms in a straightforward way.
The VQ-880-GH carries out laser range measurements for high resolution surveying of underwater topography with a narrow, visible green laser beam, emitted from a powerful pulsed laser source. Subject to clarity, at this particular wavelength the laser beam penetrates water enabling measurement of submerged targets.
