LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a measurement, surveying and mapping system, similar to radar that uses laser pulses instead of radio waves. LiDAR’s ability to collect vast amounts of data makes it highly accurate as compared to other digital surveying and mapping technologies. With the rapid development of the global positioning system (GPS) and inertial navigation unit (INU) technologies, LiDAR has become a commercially feasible technology over the last decade.

On the basis of application, the LiDAR market has been segmented into government, military, defense & aerospace, civil engineering, corridor mapping, topographic surveys, and volumetric mapping. The key players of the LiDAR market in the Middle East and Africa are Trimble Navigation Limited (U.S.), Optech Inc. (U.S.), and Topcon Corporation Limited (Japan).
To ensure a sustainable, long-term market hold, the market leaders apply key growth strategies including new facility expansion and R&D activities.
The major thrust of companies in LiDAR ecosystem is towards technology innovations and entering niche application markets. Many new and innovative products were launched by leading market players such as Trimble Navigation Limited, and Optech.
Recently, Trimble introduced the “Ashtech MB-One GNSS” module for system integrators, along with its next-generation Unmanned Aircraft System - the Trimble UX5 aerial imaging rover and the “Trimble Access” aerial imaging application. Optech recently released Lynx SG1 Mobile Mapper (Survey Grade) as a replacement to Lynx M1. Optech also released a gyro-stabilized survey solution to incorporate both active and passive Optech airborne sensors in a multitude-sensor configuration. The leading market players have also made several acquisitions in recent times: Trimble acquired Alk Technologies (U.S.) to extend its logistics and transportation solutions to transportation providers and shippers. Trimble also acquired Refraction Technology Assets (U.S.) to expand its structural monitoring solutions and scientific research.
