2018年7月19日，GeoSLAM, a UK-based company specializing in 3D geographical technology solutions, and3D激光映射移动映射系统和映射软件的领先生产商宣布，两家公司将合并。
大卫·伯特（David Burt）, CFO of GeoSLAM, had following to say on the future of the merger: “We are absolutely thrilled to be merging the companies and believe that the combined resources of these businesses will help us to exceed our level of service and support to global customers and dealers.透明
Obvious synergies between the two companies will reinforced R&D efforts for 3D scanning technology, and extend their worldwide market reach.
GeoSLAM
GeoSLAM was initially founded as a joint venture between now-merged company 3D Laser Mapping, and Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (Csiro), that has been crucial to backing未来的技术机会。
Since 2012, GeoSLAM has done some pioneering work in portable handheld 3D scanning equipment, or what it calls “go-anywhere” 3D scanning technologies. It’s latest innovation is the LiDAR scanner ZEB-REVO RT.
Zeb-Revo RT是一种轻巧的手持3D扫描仪，提供实时功能，这意味着在调查完成之前可以实时查看扫描。
它的实时功能和旋转的头部使其成为孤独的考古学家，测量师或3D扫描爱好者，不依赖额外的帮助或设备而难以到达空间的理想解决方案。
3D激光映射
3D激光映射于1999年在英国成立。Its versatile ROBIN, a mobile mapping system, is a portable 3D scanner, typically operated by one person. To produce 3D scans, the operator can scan the environment walking with ROBIN and its backpack, both weighing nearly 10 kg. The scanner can also be mounted to a road vehicle, which offers time-saving solutions in ideal conditions.
此外，罗宾可以对环境进行空中扫描。它可以安装到无人机，也可以安装到带有3D Land Mapping +机翼的直升机，这是一个轻巧的吊舱，专门设计用于与Robin Systems集成。
LIDAR的未来
随着激光雷达技术继续找到新的应用程序，例如教学autonomous vehicleshow to “see”, andpreserving global landmarks， 我看到两家公司如何结合他们的兴趣以提供更好的客户解决方案会很有趣。
3D激光映射的创始人格雷厄姆·亨特（Graham Hunter）表示：“这次合并将把两个主要组织中最好的全球覆盖范围结合在一起，”
“他们俩都有非常不同的技能，专门从事全球销售，营销和分销，而3D激光映射具有先进的研发功能。”
合并结合了市场战略和研发的专业知识，希望在3D扫描解决方案中启动一个新时代。亨特补充说：“这将使新组织能够在全球范围内提供下一代领先的产品。”
除了土木工程和工业工作外，两家公司还参与了与环境问题有关的项目。Geoslam提供了森林砍伐的地理图映射解决方案。3D激光映射进行了沿海监测以测量environmental change。
