KHEERAN Corporation provides high-density railway LiDAR scanning in Canada for asset inventory, clearance analysis and 3D modelling. Our hi-rail scanner arrays capture the full corridor — track, structures, signals and terrain — in one pass. As a result, Canadian railways gain a precise digital record of everything they own.
Railway LiDAR Scanning in Canada: Why It Matters
Canadian corridors stretch through remote terrain, dense vegetation and severe winters. Consequently, manual asset inspection is slow, costly and often incomplete. Railway LiDAR scanning in Canada replaces weeks of field walking with a single survey pass. Moreover, the data supports clearance checks, vegetation management and bridge assessments — all from one dataset referenced to your chainage.
Hi-Rail Capture with GNSS and Inertial Navigation
Our scanner array collects thousands of points per second within roughly a 100 m radius, while cameras record 360° geo-referenced imagery. Tightly-coupled GNSS and IMU navigation keeps positioning stable even where forest or structures block satellite signal. Furthermore, the track centreline is measured directly from the scan, so every asset carries a chainage and offset from the rail-head plane.
AI Classification at Network Scale
Point clouds of billions of points are tiled, denoised and classified by deep-learning models. These models separate ground from structure and extract assets automatically. Therefore, KHEERAN delivers accuracy and scale that manual extraction cannot match.
What Your LiDAR Survey Delivers
- Classified, georeferenced point clouds in LAS/LAZ format.
- Asset inventories with locations and attributes.
- Structure-gauge and loading-gauge clearance analysis.
- Vegetation encroachment mapping and 3D/BIM models.
In addition, our railway asset scanning service combines with GPR and geometry surveys for a complete picture — above and below the ballast line. Planning railway LiDAR scanning in Canada? Contact KHEERAN today for a survey scope.
