Geosun GS 2000N 2000m Long Range UAV LiDAR Scanner

The GeoSun GS-2000N is a professional long-range LiDAR mapping system designed for airborne and vehicle-based surveying. It combines a long-range laser scanner, multi-constellation GNSS, an inertial navigation system, onboard data storage and optional full-frame camera imagery in one integrated payload for collecting georeferenced 3D point clouds.

Typical applications include topographic surveying, corridor mapping, power-line inspection, forestry, agriculture, land planning, digital-city mapping, infrastructure surveys and large-area terrain mapping. Its long measurement range is particularly useful for projects that require data acquisition from higher flight altitudes.

Yes. UAV LiDAR surveying is one of the primary applications of the GS-2000N. GeoSun specifies compatibility with multi-rotor and VTOL platforms, allowing the system to collect LiDAR, GNSS/INS and optional imagery data during automated aerial survey missions.

Yes. The GS-2000N is specifically designed for use with suitable VTOL platforms. Its long measurement range makes it especially useful for fixed-wing VTOL projects where higher flight speeds and larger survey areas are required.

Yes. GeoSun describes the GS-2000N as a UAV and vehicle measurement system. When correctly mounted and calibrated, its LiDAR, GNSS and inertial navigation components can also be used for compatible mobile mapping workflows.

The GS-2000N is designed for professional surveying companies, geospatial service providers, power-line inspection teams, forestry specialists, engineering firms, mapping organisations and UAV operators that need high-density long-range LiDAR data over large areas.

The GS-2000N has a specified maximum laser measurement range of up to 2,000 metres under suitable target and atmospheric conditions. Maximum ranging capability should not be interpreted as the recommended flying altitude for every survey, because achievable accuracy and point density depend on altitude, target reflectivity, terrain and mission settings.

GeoSun specifies overall system accuracy of approximately 10 cm at a 600 m survey distance under suitable conditions. The integrated laser scanner itself has a specified range accuracy of approximately 3 mm at 100 m. Overall point-cloud accuracy also depends on GNSS quality, INS performance, flight geometry, calibration and post-processing.

The approximately 3 mm specification describes the laser scanner's distance-measurement accuracy at 100 m. The approximately 10 cm at 600 m specification describes the accuracy of the complete georeferenced mapping system. Final coordinates are influenced not only by laser ranging but also by GNSS positioning, aircraft attitude, mounting calibration and flight distance.

The GS-2000N laser scanner can record up to approximately 2,000,000 measurements per second. This high measurement rate helps maintain useful point density when flying at higher altitudes or surveying terrain at relatively high platform speeds.

The GS-2000N provides an adjustable LiDAR field of view of approximately 75° to 90°. The selected field of view influences the width of the surveyed swath and can be configured according to the flight altitude, terrain and required point density.

Yes. The GS-2000N supports up to seven echoes or returns from a laser pulse. Multiple returns are especially useful in vegetation because a pulse can generate measurements from different parts of the canopy and potentially from the ground beneath it.

GeoSun's reference mission table specifies approximately 135 points/m² at 200 m, 40 points/m² at 400 m and 10 points/m² at 600 m when flying at approximately 10 m/s. Actual density depends on flight speed, altitude, scan configuration, overlap, terrain and other mission parameters.

Yes. The GS-2000N includes an integrated positioning and orientation system that combines multi-frequency GNSS with an inertial measurement unit. This enables the position and attitude of the LiDAR sensor to be recorded throughout the survey so the laser measurements can be converted into georeferenced 3D coordinates.

The integrated positioning system supports multi-frequency observations from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou. Supported signals include GPS L1/L2/L5, GLONASS L1/L2, Galileo E1/E5a/E5b and multiple BeiDou frequencies.

The integrated positioning system is specified with position accuracy of up to approximately 0.05 m, pitch and roll accuracy of approximately 0.003° and heading accuracy of approximately 0.010°. The trajectory solution is updated at up to 200 Hz.

A full-frame 45 MP camera is available for the GS-2000N. The documented camera configuration uses a 40 mm focal length and offers approximately 57° or 79° field-of-view options. Camera imagery can be combined with LiDAR data to create colourised point clouds and additional visual survey products.

GeoSun provides Shuttle software for GNSS/INS trajectory processing and gAirHawk software for LiDAR point-cloud processing. The workflow combines the processed trajectory with the laser measurements to produce georeferenced point-cloud data for subsequent mapping and analysis.

Yes. GeoSun's processing workflow supports standard LAS point-cloud output as well as text-based point-cloud data. LAS files can then be used in compatible surveying, GIS, CAD, forestry and point-cloud processing applications.

Yes. GeoSun lists WayPoint Master as an optional customised route-planning application. Mission planning can be used to define flight routes according to factors such as project boundaries, flying height, speed, overlap and required data coverage.

GeoSun's reference efficiency table lists approximately 2.8 km² at a 200 m flight height, 5.6 km² at 400 m and 8.4 km² at 600 m for the stated reference mission conditions. Actual survey coverage depends on the UAV, battery endurance, flight speed, overlap, terrain, regulations and required point density.

The current GS-2000N datasheet specifies a system weight of approximately 3.3 kg. The payload capacity of the selected UAV must also account for mounting hardware and any additional components required by the complete installation.

The GS-2000N measures approximately 254 × 133 × 125 mm. Its integrated design combines the laser scanner, GNSS/INS, storage and control electronics into a relatively compact airborne mapping payload.

The current GS-2000N datasheet specifies a 512 GB solid-state drive and support for an additional TF card up to 128 GB. Available recording capacity should be considered when planning long missions with high LiDAR measurement rates and camera imagery.

The specified operating temperature range is approximately -20°C to +55°C. UAV operation must also remain within the environmental limits of the aircraft, batteries, GNSS equipment and other components used in the complete mapping system.

Yes. Forestry and power-line mapping are key applications of the GS-2000N. Its long measurement range, high measurement rate and support for up to seven returns make it suitable for collecting terrain beneath vegetation, analysing forest structure and mapping transmission corridors and surrounding terrain.
