The challenge & transformation

Traditional street-level surveys require lane closures, disrupt public traffic and expose ground crews to hazardous roadside environments, while the data collection schedule drags out over weeks. By deploying vehicle-mounted mobile mapping systems carrying high-precision LiDAR and panoramic imagery sensors, AECA Solutions transforms how transportation networks and linear assets are recorded, capturing complete streetscapes at a point accuracy of 2 to 3 centimetres.

This high-speed mobile approach compresses survey timelines, recording kilometres of highway or utility corridor in a single drive-by pass. By replacing manual roadside measurement with automated, continuous capture, your operations save valuable hours, reduce safety risk and cut operational overhead, delivering reliable asset intelligence faster than before.

The capabilities & what we deliver

Survey-grade capture at traffic speed, with no lane closures. What comes back is a continuous record of the corridor and everything beside it.

Utility corridor & railway mapping

Capture high-density 3D data across extensive linear infrastructure to manage clearance zones, overhead lines and track alignments safely.

  • Overhead powerline and vegetation clearance analysis
  • Railway track geometry and corridor modelling
  • Subsurface and above-ground utility mapping
  • Continuous linear asset inventory tracking

Digital twin & urban asset inventory

Convert mobile point clouds into comprehensive 3D city models, capturing street furniture, signs and building facades with survey-grade precision.

  • Roadside and urban asset inventory tracking
  • Parking slot mapping and spatial auditing
  • Facade and street-furniture modelling
  • GIS-ready spatial database synchronisation
