Aerial LiDAR Scanning in Dubai
High-density LiDAR captures elevation and 3D terrain with survey-grade detail, enabling our clients to map, monitor, and manage complex sites faster and safely at scale across infrastructure and expanding land.
Precision Geospatial Mapping with Aerial 3D Laser Scanning Services
As Dubai pushes ahead with large-scale development, survey methods need to match its pace. Buma Luna provides aerial LiDAR scanning that delivers cm-level accuracy for terrain mapping, elevation models, and complex design work.
Using advanced laser systems mounted on UAVs, we specialize in aerial 3D data acquisition across both urban corridors and remote landscapes.
The outputs go beyond raw data, turning into detailed models that engineers, planners, and environmental teams can use to design, build, and monitor with confidence.
Key Benefits of Terrestrial Laser Scanning
Unmatched Accuracy and Detail
LiDAR captures millions of data points per second, producing dense drone point cloud data that defines terrain, buildings, and vegetation with survey-grade precision.
Vegetation Penetration
Laser pulses cut through tree canopies to measure bare earth, giving accurate terrain models for mapping, drainage design, and vegetation planning.
Rapid Data Collection
Aerial LiDAR scans vast areas in a fraction of the time, reducing survey costs while delivering precise elevation data for roads, land, and construction.
Integration Ready
Outputs such as DEMs, DTMs, and contours link directly with CAD and GIS tools, improving design accuracy, planning efficiency, and project workflows.

Key Applications of 3D Laser Scanning Services in UAE
Whether desert landscapes or mega-infrastructure, our aerial 3D laser scanning services are changing the way Dubai collects and uses spatial data for planning, design, and monitoring.
Urban Development and Planning
LiDAR data creates digital city models of Dubai’s growth zones. Roads, utilities, and zoning can be designed with precision, giving planners confidence in shaping the next phase of urban expansion.
Transportation and Utility Corridors
Aerial LiDAR scanning in Dubai scans long linear assets like roads, bridges, rail, pipelines, and power lines. Profiles reveal slopes, cut-and-fill volumes, and terrain changes that support design, maintenance, and expansion.
Environmental and Coastal Mapping
Our drone surveying services support climate studies, erosion monitoring, and change detection. Coastal mapping delivers precise topographic models for flood planning, land management, and environmental protection.
Ground-Based Scanning Support
Pairing aerial LiDAR with terrestrial scanning provides complete 3D detail. Structures, façades, and indoor spaces are documented alongside terrain, giving projects accuracy and precision.
Integrated Survey Solutions
By combining LiDAR with full drone surveying, our 3D laser scanning services in UAE gain seamless data, whether wide landscapes or tight structures, reducing gaps and building consistency across planning and design.

frequently asked questions
What is LiDAR scanning used for?
UAV LiDAR topography builds detailed 3D maps of terrain, vegetation, and infrastructure. It supports design, pre-construction, construction, monitoring, and planning projects across Dubai.
How accurate is the data from LiDAR?
With survey-grade systems, LiDAR reaches centimeter-level precision. This level of detail surpasses manual or satellite surveys and meets engineering standards.
What’s the difference between aerial and terrestrial scanning?
While both aerial LiDAR and terrestrial laser scanning deliver equally high levels of accuracy, they capture data from different perspectives. Aerial LiDAR covers large areas efficiently from above, making it ideal for topography, infrastructure, and asset mapping. Terrestrial scanning complements it from the ground. At Buma Luna, our focus is on Aerial LiDAR.
How long does it take to complete a LiDAR project?
Data collection can be done in hours or days, depending on the area size. Processing and delivery for our geodetic mapping solutions vary. LiDAR inspection covers more area in less time in comparison to traditional methods.
What file formats will I receive?
Deliverables include point clouds (LAS/LAZ), DEMs, DTMs, contours, and shapefiles. Precision laser mapping data is prepared for easy use in GIS or CAD platforms for design work.
