RIEGL and Diamond Aircraft forge innovation in airborne laser scanning with DA62 SurveyStar

RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems and Diamond Aircraft join forces to revolutionise surveying capabilities through the introduction of the DA62 SurveyStar aircraft.

RIEGL and Diamond Aircraft forge innovation in airborne laser scanning with the DA62 SurveyStar by combining RIEGL’s expertise in laser measurement systems with Diamond Aircraft’s extensive experience in special mission aircraft. The DA62 SurveyStar is setting new standards in aerial surveying capabilities. As a result of the two companies’ long-standing cooperation, RIEGL’s advanced airborne laser scanners and systems can now be seamlessly integrated into the new test aircraft for comprehensive trials.

With the DA42 GeoStar aircraft operating successfully for nearly 15 years now, RIEGL is proud to be the first Austrian operator to embrace the remarkable successor, the DA62 SurveyStar. This achievement is a testament to the strong and fruitful partnership between RIEGL and Diamond Aircraft.

Markus Fischer, Director of Diamond Aircraft Special Mission Aircraft, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We are thrilled to collaborate with RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems in bringing the DA62 SurveyStar to life. Having worked closely with RIEGL over the past 15 years, we are confident that this cutting-edge aircraft will redefine the possibilities in aerial surveying. We look forward to delivering this remarkable aircraft to Dr. Riegl and his team.”

Dr. Johannes Riegl, CEO of RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems and an avid pilot, expressed his excitement about the introduction of the DA62 SurveyStar. He remarked, “This collaboration with Diamond Aircraft marks a new chapter in our pursuit of innovation. The DA62 SurveyStar is the perfect platform to advance our high-end airborne laser scanning technology. I am particularly thrilled to personally pilot this exceptional aircraft in the future.”

The integration of RIEGL’s state-of-the-art VQ-1460 Airborne Mapping System into the DA62 SurveyStar further enhances its capabilities, ensuring that it remains at the forefront of technological advancements in aerial surveying. This collaboration between RIEGL and Diamond Aircraft is set to redefine the surveying industry, empowering professionals with unparalleled accuracy, efficiency and reliability.
