Overview

Mach9 provides geospatial software solutions that transform large-scale mobile LiDAR scans into 2D and 3D engineering models. Using LiDAR technology, which measures distances with pulsed laser light, Mach9's software processes these scans significantly faster and at a lower cost than traditional methods. The software is particularly beneficial for surveying, engineering, and construction firms that need precise and efficient conversion of image and point cloud data into usable maps for their projects. By leveraging artificial intelligence, Mach9 automates the data processing, allowing clients to concentrate on their primary tasks. The company operates on a software-as-a-service model, where clients submit their data for processing, and the cost is determined by the complexity and scale of the project. Mach9 aims to enhance efficiency and accuracy in the geospatial industry.
