Teledyne Launches CZMIL SuperNova Bathymetric Lidar Solution
Teledyne Optech and Teledyne CARIS, both Teledyne Technologies companies, have announced their next-generation bathymetric Lidar, the CZMIL SuperNova.
The CZMIL SuperNova is designed to boast the best depth performance and the highest green laser point density in its class. Introducing SmartSpacing technology for even and efficient point spacing, real-time processing capability for reduced post-processing time, and configurable modes for maximizing performance in different water environments, the SuperNova provides a wide range of inputs for climate change modelling and is ideal for inland water environments and base mapping for coastal zones and shoreline.
Depth Penetration
To complete the solution, Teledyne CARIS has integrated its BASE Editor software for seamless data processing capacity. Leveraging AI techniques for land/water discrimination and noise classification, the CZMIL SuperNova bathymetric solution effectively delivers on marketplace demands for efficiencies in the processing workflow.
CZMIL SuperNova product manager Jennifer Aitken explained: “CZMIL SuperNova builds on over 30 years of experience with airborne green laser bathymetry. The ability to configure the system on-the-fly and optimize data collection for local conditions has significant benefits. We are getting plenty of signal at 600 metres altitude and even higher, so our coverage area is increasing without sacrificing depth penetration.”
