In case you missed it: 2 months until Phoenix LiDAR SOAR 2026!🚨

We’re bringing SOAR back for year two and this year we’re expanding the event beyond manned airborne LiDAR demonstrations. This video is a quick look at how last year went.

This year, we’re taking it even further with three days of LiDAR mapping in action across the full Phoenix offering with manned, UAV, and mobile LiDAR collection, as well as LiDAR software solutions. We’ll have live demonstrations, hands-on experiences, vendor presentations, and opportunities to connect with industry partners and other professionals from across the geospatial industry.

📍 Austin, Texas
📅 November 16–18, 2026

Commercial UAV Expo Conference was a great opportunity to showcase not just our LiDAR systems, but the UAV platforms they can fly on.

A big thank you to the UAV partners who helped us bring that variety to Booth #522:
🤝 Arcsky - our fellow Austin-based UAV manufacturer
🤝 Inspired Flight - supporting a range of professional mapping and sensing applications
🤝 Skyfront - bringing long-endurance hybrid UAV capabilities to the show
🤝 Freefly Systems - Alta X - for the compact and lightweight Astro MAX

We appreciate each of these teams for working with us and helping demonstrate the flexibility of Phoenix LiDAR Systems across different UAV platforms. The right UAV + the right LiDAR payload can make all the difference when it comes to building a system around the mission.

A lot has happened since Phoenix LiDAR Systems started with a simple idea: make aerial LiDAR functional, accessible, and commercially viable.

There were home-built systems, hand-wired hardware, crashed demos, long nights, and plenty of trial and error. But eventually, those challenges paved the way for the workflows that democratized LiDAR across UAS, airborne, and mobile platforms.

This featured article in xyHt included Grayson Omans, Ben Adler, and Rob Dannenberg to share that exact journey, detailing our evolution, our acquisition by Revolution Geosystems, and how Phoenix helped shape the commercial mapping market we serve today.

Did you know that past NDAA compliance doesn't guarantee current compliance?

As NDAA requirements evolve and supply chains change, it's important to verify that your payload still meets current requirements, not just rely on a previous compliance claim. We recommend requesting documentation from your manufacturer to ensure that your payload is still compliant.

At Phoenix LiDAR Systems, maintaining NDAA compliance has always been a priority. The RANGER Series has remained compliant through every major NDAA update, including the latest requirements that took effect on June 30, 2026.

Already have a LiDAR system? Visit our NDAA Compliance Hub to learn more about the latest requirements, and complete your equipment assessment. :link: https://zurl.co/Y3MXd

Tech tip! Want to become a ground classification expert in SpatialExplorer?

The key to understanding the ground classification algorithm is that it uses a series of progressively finer triangulated surfaces created from low points. Each surface can only be made from points within a certain tolerance of the previous surface, which prevents the ground class from climbing vegetation or walls.

The first surface is made by sampling low points at a very coarse interval, typically 20 m. This coarse distance corresponds to the Cell Size parameter. Why would you sample at such a coarse interval? Building removal. If you find the lowest point every 20 meters, it’s very unlikely to be a building point.

After this first iteration, the next iteration samples low points every 2 meters, or whatever the Feature Size parameter is set to. This parameter is then decreased every successive iteration, so typically by the 10th iteration, low point sampling happens at a very fine grid size.

Urban data sets require a Cell Size of ~20 m for building removal. With forestry or non-urban data sets, particularly when there is significant terrain variation, a smaller initial Cell Size parameter will sample the terrain more precisely and result in a better ground classification.
