OxTS and Livox
With the release of OxTS Georeferencer 1.5, OxTS announced integrations with a number of Livox LiDAR sensors.
Using OxTS Georeferencer to combine raw data from Livox LiDAR sensors, with the inertial measurements from OxTS Inertial Navigation Systems, including the Survey+ v3, xNAV650 and the xOEM Board Set, users can:
- Create a full navigation solution
- Speed up ‘time to survey’
- Quickly and easily survey the world around them
- Create high quality, georeferenced pointclouds
Over the coming months, new sensors will be integrated into OxTS Georeferencer to provide users with a wider choice when it comes to the technology they use to survey their environment.
“Integrating the Livox LiDAR sensor into OxTS Georeferencer gives us the ability to offer a cost-effective, high-quality, full survey solution comprising of INS, LiDAR and georeferencing software. This combined solution offering helps us work towards our goal of putting high-quality navigation data into the hands of surveyors whatever the budget.”
Simon Thompson, Business Manager – LiDAR Survey, OxTS
Livox LiDAR sensors are used in a wide range of applications. Their cost-effective, compact and minimalist form factor, provides surveyors with the flexibility to embed them into any design.
When coupled with the low-cost, lightweight and small form-factor of the xNAV650 INS, surveyors can build a full navigation solution that is both high-quality and cost-effective.

LiDAR Surveying Brochure
OxTS inertial navigation systems provide users with absolute position and highly accurate inertial measurement information. This information allows them to georeference pointclouds from multiple LiDAR sensors.
These measurements help increase survey repeatability, cut down the time to survey, intelligently analyse data, improve final results and increase project ROI.
