Rail Design Project: LiDAR and Ortho Imagery
AAM undertook an aerial survey to support a rail expansion program including an upgrade and new lines.
The scope of this project was 130 linear kilometres along a corridor width varying from 400m to 2000m. Imagery was required for the purpose of engineering design and as a backdrop for field survey data. The LiDAR derived, terrain products were for the purpose of detailed engineering design.
