Mobile Mapping System

Urban data capture is at your fingertips with 12.3K resolution 360° imagery paired with LiDAR.

Capture today. Deliver tomorrow.

Meridian Lite: Power and Precision at the Right Price

Mosaic, the industry leader in ultra-high-resolution 360° imaging technology, is proud to add the Meridian Lite Mobile Mapping System to our lineup.

After the success of the Meridian, our original mobile mapping system, the Meridian Lite is here to broaden geospatial professionals’ range of options.

The key difference between these models is that the Meridian Lite MLS system features our flagship Mosaic 51 rolling-shutter 360° camera with 12.3K resolution rather than the Mosaic X, which has global-shutter lenses and 13.5K resolution.

The Meridian Lite is ideal for city-scale scanning. Capture high-quality LiDAR data alongside high-resolution imagery, all in one, easy-to-use MLS system.

With the Meridian Lite, Less is More

The Meridian Lite is a streamlined, entry-level MLS system. It is an affordable solution, especially for city-scale mapping projects, creating GIS databases, and executing large, challenging mapping projects.

Rolling Shutter Lenses

Many geospatial professionals do not require RGB colorized LiDAR point clouds. With a rolling shutter 360° camera, you can lower your investment costs compared to a global shutter camera.

Lightweight LiDAR

While others chase 3–5 million pts/sec and end up with too much data that slows processing, transfer, and storage without adding real value, Mosaic Meridian captures around 800,000 pts/sec with 3 returns—enough for robust automation and clear interpretation.

Single Operator Needed

You don't need advanced knowledge of GIS to operate the Meridian Lite. A single operator with minimal training can install the system on the roof, collect data, and monitor the process from the vehicle's cab.
