DJI Global PR

November 5, 2025 (Shenzhen, China) – DJI has unveiled the Zenmuse L3, its most advanced aerial LiDAR system to date, engineered to redefine accuracy and range in drone-based geospatial mapping and industrial surveying. Designed for enterprise and professional users, the Zenmuse L3 integrates long-range LiDAR sensing, precise 3D point-cloud capture, and high-performance imaging into a compact, drone-compatible payload.

“Zenmuse L3 brings unmatched mapping quality and operational efficiency to the sky. With improved range, accuracy, and environmental adaptability, surveyors can generate reliable geospatial data faster and in more challenging conditions than ever before,” said Christina Zhang, Senior Director of Corporate Strategy at DJI.

Key Features of Zenmuse L3

  • High-Accuracy Long-Range LiDAR: Captures detailed 3D data over increased distances, supporting high-altitude operations without compromising accuracy.
  • Advanced Point-Cloud Imaging: Produces dense, highly accurate point-cloud maps ideal for surveying, topographic modeling, and infrastructure planning.
  • Integrated RGB Camera: Colorizes LiDAR data for enhanced visual interpretation and classification.
  • Adaptable in Challenging Environments: Offers robust performance in low-light, complex terrains, and vegetation-dense areas.
  • Smart Operational Efficiency: Seamlessly integrates with DJI enterprise drones and DJI Terra for automated workflows and accelerated data processing.

Strategic Value Across Industries

The introduction of Zenmuse L3 aims to elevate modernization initiatives in sectors dependent on accurate geospatial intelligence:

  • Construction & Infrastructure: Enables rapid site measurement, planning, and monitoring with minimal time on ground.
  • Forestry & Environmental Management: Penetrates vegetation to reveal terrain and biodiversity patterns.
  • Public Safety & Disaster Response: Supports damage assessment and terrain mapping in inaccessible or hazardous regions.
  • Utility Inspection & Asset Mapping: Captures precise structural geometry for powerlines, pipelines, and industrial assets.

Enhanced Productivity & Cost Savings

With the Zenmuse L3, organizations can:

  • Replace labor-intensive ground surveys with fast aerial scans
  • Reduce project time and repeated field visits
  • Maintain operations without shutting down sites
  • Improve data accuracy for regulatory and project compliance
