Seiler Instruments Expands Drone LiDAR and Software Offering


Seiler Instruments Grows Drone Surveying Footprint by Joining the GeoCue Distribution Network and Acquiring an Additional Trimble Reseller in Kentucky

Seiler Instrument & Mfg. Co., Inc., a distributor of drone surveying equipment from Microdrones, has also joined the distribution network of GeoCue, to now provide the full portfolio of LiDAR mapping equipment and LP360 processing software available from both companies.

In addition, Seiler has acquired the assets of Precision Products, LLC and Precision Capture, Inc. to provide a full range of geospatial products, drone surveying equipment, and other solutions for the state of Kentucky. The asset purchase of Precision Products located in Lexington and Louisville, Kentucky, will add to the existing Midwest presence of Seiler Geospatial as a leader in Survey, GPS, Robotics, Drone, LiDAR, and software solutions.

Now, as part of the GeoCue distribution network, Seiler offers TrueView 3D Imaging Sensors, an innovative drone LiDAR and photogrammetry solution integrated into lightweight payloads. It allows for fast, easily automated generation of true 3D colorized point clouds, oblique imagery, and orthophotos from a single drone flight.

Seiler Instruments is also authorized to sell LP360 LiDAR & photogrammetry 3D point cloud software. LP360, an advanced desktop LIDAR software package, makes easy work of extracting information and generating deliverables in an intuitive GIS environment.

Seiler Instrument’s corporate office headquarters is in St. Louis and now has geospatial offices to serve its clients in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.
