LP360
LP360 Drone is desktop software for processing, analyzing, and producing deliverables from drone LiDAR and imagery data. Its views synchronize 2D, 3D, and profile displays, and include 3D Gaussian Splat viewing. Tools cover LiDAR quality control and repair, filtering, 3D editing, automated ground classification, terrain models, and volume calculations. Optional AI add-ons classify ground and above-ground features, extract forestry outputs, and identify utility corridor features. LP360 supports sensors including DJI, Microdrones, Phoenix LiDAR, Riegl, TrueView, Wingtra, and YellowScan, and can combine data with other geospatial sources. Exports include CAD formats and LANDXML; LPLAS files follow the ASPRS LAS specification. The Drone license is a floating license for one device and limits project size to 10km². Core processing is local, with optional cloud workflows; offline or air-gapped operation is supported. A free plan is listed. The LP360 Drone plan costs $1,675 USD per year.
