LiDAR: a new Era for flow monitoring in Airports

LiDAR is a game changer technology enabling a whole new level of situation awareness in many airport contexts, from security to operational excellence.


3D People Flow Monitoring Solutions are bringing a New Era to Airports thanks to LiDAR.

This enabling technology offers 3D measurements with great precision and operates in any lighting condition, unlike older technologies like cameras.

Moreover, LiDARs can cover much larger areas and protect privacy by design.

Outsight’s Software allows Airport operators to leverage this amazing technology for different needs and a diversity of stakeholders.

Key benefits of lidar in airports

Our solution works with a large number of LiDAR manufacturers and turns raw data into Actionable Insight.
