We can host LiDAR data on CloudRF for private use (only named user can access) or public (everyone can access).

Pricing is based upon the file size to ensure only relevant and quality data is uploaded.

Only good data will be accepted for addition to the service. We will not upload, or charge for, data with obvious defects which are checked during a QC process.

If your data requires pre-processing to get it into the required format, a consultancy charge of £150 per hour applies.

Private data
