Abstract

A hybrid LiDAR-imaging device is configured for aerial surveying and comprises a camera arrangement adapted for generating orthophoto data and a LiDAR device, in which an overall exposure area is provided by the camera arrangement, which has a transverse extension of at least 60 mm and the LiDAR device has a longitudinal extension axially along a ground viewing nominal LiDAR axis and a lateral extension substantially orthogonal to the nominal LiDAR axis, in which the longitudinal extension is larger than the lateral extension.
