DJI's next-generation high-accuracy aerial LiDAR system features a long-range LiDAR capable of reaching up to 950m even on objects with just 10% reflectivity. Dual 100MP RGB mapping cameras and a high-precision POS system accelerate geospatial data acquisition, enabling daily coverage of up to 100 km².
DJI Zenmuse L3 LiDAR
DJI’s First Long-Range, High-Accuracy Aerial LiDAR System
1535nm Long-Range LiDAR
Long Range, Wide Coverage
Zenmuse L3 achieves a maximum detection range of 950m at a pulse rate of 100 kHz, tested under 100 klx ambient light and on objects with 10% reflectivity. The adjustable pulse rate allows for flexible power output and optimal adaptation to different operational scenarios. Typical flight altitudes of 300 to 500m significantly expand single-flight coverage and boost mapping efficiency.
Scanning Modes
Supports Linear, Star-Shaped, and Non-Repetitive scanning modes for different operational scenarios:
• Linear: Achieves more consistent point cloud distribution, ideal for high-accuracy terrain mapping.
• Star-Shaped: Balances accuracy with multiple scan angles and penetration capability, well-suited for forests or dense urban environments.
• Non-Repetitive: Provides multiple scan angles and broader coverage, optimized for power line inspections and other complex structural surveys.
Small Spot, High Energy
With a laser beam divergence of just 0.25 mrad (1/e²), the spot size at the same range is about one-fifth that of Zenmuse L2, enabling detection of smaller objects such as power lines and branches. Higher energy density results in stronger penetration capability, significantly increasing ground point density beneath vegetation and enabling high-accuracy reconstruction of complex terrains and structures.
High Pulse Rate, Multiple Returns
With maximum laser pulse emission frequency of 2 million pulses per second and support for up to 16 returns, Zenmuse L3 delivers highly accurate spatial reconstruction. Point cloud density and penetration capability can be adjusted to fit needs from high-accuracy mapping to complex environments.
Dual 100MP RGB Mapping Camera System
Dual 100MP RGB Mapping Cameras
Equipped with dual 100MP 4/3 CMOS RGB sensors and a mechanical shutter, Zenmuse L3 delivers significantly enhanced accuracy and efficiency. Pixel binning supports an effective 25MP resolution with larger pixel size, producing superior color reproduction even under poor lighting conditions.
107 Degrees Ultra-Wide FOV
The dual RGB mapping cameras provide a horizontal field of view (FOV) of up to 107°, allowing each capture to cover a broader area. Even with a 20% LiDAR side overlap ratio, you can capture data for both digital orthophoto maps (DOM) and digital elevation models (DEM) in a single flight, thereby greatly improving operational efficiency.
High Accuracy
Proprietary High-Precision System
The upgraded high-precision POS system achieves heading accuracy of 0.02° and pitch accuracy of 0.01° (post-processed, 1σ). The self-developed LiDAR delivers ranging repeatability of 5 mm at 150 m (1σ) and supports microsecond-level time synchronization. Each unit undergoes rigorous factory calibration to ensure consistently reliable survey results.
LiDAR Data Accuracy
Vertical accuracy is better than 3 cm at 120m altitude, better than 5 cm at 300 m, and better than 10 cm at 500 m, easily supporting mapping projects at 1:500, 1:1000, and 1:2000 scales. The point cloud thickness produced by Zenmuse L3 is only half that of Zenmuse L2, supporting advanced analysis and high-accuracy applications.
Photogrammetric Accuracy
With dual 100MP RGB mapping cameras, Zenmuse L3 achieves a ground sample distance (GSD) of 3 cm even at a 300m flight altitude. Real-time position synchronization enables operation without ground control points (GCPs), ensuring high-quality imagery for precise mapping.
High Penetration
High Ground Point Density
With a smaller laser spot and higher single-pulse energy, Zenmuse L3 offers superior penetration capability. In terrain mapping and similar applications, it captures more ground points with greater completeness, significantly improving the accuracy and integrity of terrain data for precise surface fitting and reconstruction.
High Efficiency
Up to 100 km² per day
When mounted on DJI Matrice 400, Zenmuse L3 delivers outstanding efficiency. At a flight altitude of 300 m, a single flight can cover up to 10 km², enabling up to 100 km² of daily coverage.
Multiple deliverables in a single flight
Simultaneously capture LiDAR and RGB data to generate a range of mapping products from a single flight, including DEM, Don, and more.
End-To-End Solution
Zenmuse L3 seamlessly integrates with DJI's ecosystem to deliver an end-to-end mapping solution. From data acquisition and processing to application, this unified workflow is simpler to operate and easier to master than traditional multi-platform setups, helping users efficiently complete a wide range of mapping tasks.
High Efficiency
Data Acquisition
Data Processing
PPK Data Processing
DJI Terra features robust built-in PPK (Post-Processed Kinematic) capabilities, compatible with D-RTK 3 and standard base station data. The platform supports local PPK for RGB imagery and LiDAR, providing centimeter-level positioning accuracy even in areas with limited network connectivity or where RTK is unavailable.
LiDAR Gaussian Splatting
DJI Terra enables advanced Gaussian Splatting fusion-based reconstruction of point cloud and RGB data collected by Zenmuse L3, dramatically enhancing the realism and detail of 3D models. This capability broadens the application scope of LiDAR across diverse mapping scenarios and delivers higher-quality 3D model outputs.
Fusion-Based Modeling
DJI Terra enables deep integration of LiDAR and RGB data. With a single acquisition, users can simultaneously generate high-accuracy point clouds, 2D maps, and 3D mesh models. This data fusion approach significantly enhances model completeness and detail, especially in environments with complex structures such as bridges and substations. It meets the needs of industries including energy, transportation, and infrastructure.
Data Application
Smart Filter
DJI Modify supports intelligent semantic classification of point clouds, automatically distinguishing ground, vegetation, buildings, wires, electric towers, and more. After classification, users can efficiently adjust categories using Quick Selection and Structure Selection tools, further enhancing classification accuracy and processing efficiency.
Profile Tool
DJI Modify's Profile tool allows users to flexibly select cross-sectional areas of point cloud models for intuitive analysis of terrain variation, structural features, and elevation profiles.
Comprehensive Output Capabilities
When paired with DJI Modify, Zenmuse L3 delivers versatile outputs. DJI Modify automatically generates a wide range of mapping products from point cloud data—including semantic point clouds, DEM, TIN, point grids, and contour lines—and supports multi-layer visualization. These outputs meet the diverse needs of engineering and design CAD-related workflows.
End-To-End Solution
Data Security
Zenmuse L3 supports CFexpress™ memory card encryption, enabling secure protection of stored data and preventing unauthorized access or data theft. Matrice 400 offers one-click log clearing and AES-256 encryption for video transmission, further ensuring data confidentiality.
