Know Your Land. Plan with Confidence.

LandScope processes LiDAR-derived elevation data into clear, intuitive terrain layers — showing slope, aspect, drainage, flow paths, and more. You simply draw a polygon or upload a .kml, and the analysis runs automatically. No PhD or GIS software needed.

We use high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) from LiDAR where available — the same data trusted by engineers and governments — and satellite-based DEMs where LiDAR coverage isn't available.

LiDAR data can be precise down to sub-meter accuracy. By and large, the terrain insights you'll be experiencing are all thanks to 1m (~3 feet) resolution data. You'll see the same level of detail used in hydrological and engineering assessments — but presented in a way anyone can understand and act on.

In the U.S., most maps are ready within minutes. Elsewhere, where data sources differ, turnaround is usually under 72 hours.

Google Earth Pro (.kmz), GeoTIFF (.tif), shapefile (.shp), DXF (.dxf), and PNG (.png) — so you can use it in your own workflows or show clients visually, instantly.

85% of the USA has immediate LiDAR coverage. For the remaining 15%, we can usually source reliable data within 72 hours. International coverage available in Canada, Mexico, UK, Poland, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Australia, and New Zealand.

Because Google Earth shows what the eye can see — not what water does. LandScope reveals the invisible logic of terrain: where water pools, how it moves, and how the entire landscape ties together as one living system. Free contour maps floating around the web are built from low-resolution elevation data. The difference at the property scale isn't subtle — it's the difference between guessing and knowing. Low resolution = low confidence = high cost. LandScope runs on high-resolution LiDAR data, so you see every contour, slope, and flow path clearly and holistically. You don't just get a map — you get the truth about how your land behaves, before it costs you to find out the hard way.

Traditional GIS work can take weeks and cost thousands. LandScope delivers the same quality of insight — automated, instant, and at a fraction of the cost. And unlike PDFs that end up in drawers, LandScope maps are interactive and built to explore.

Falling in love with a view and ignoring the terrain. We've seen people spend five figures fixing what could've been avoided with five minutes of analysis. LandScope exists to make sure that never happens to you.

No. It's designed for anyone who works with land — homesteaders, developers, realtors, designers, or investors — no GIS background required.

No — it supercharges your site visit. You'll walk the land knowing exactly where to look, saving hours (and sometimes thousands) by focusing on what matters most.

That depends on where your site is located. If you're in the U.S., 85% of the country has instant LiDAR coverage — which means your LandScope analysis will appear almost immediately inside your account. If your site isn't covered instantly, don't worry — chances are we can still help you. We'll run a complimentary data check, and if immediate LiDAR isn't available, we can: locate alternate high-resolution LiDAR elevation data, process it manually for you, or arrange a LiDAR acquisition for your site if you want the highest-resolution terrain model possible. To put your mind at ease: we've successfully delivered mapping packages across Canada, Mexico, the UK, Poland, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Australia, and New Zealand. If high quality terrain data exists — we can work with it. The bottom line is if we cannot support your site with reliable data, you don't pay — period. Once your analysis is ready, you can unlock it using: mapping credits via your LandScope Compass membership, or a one-time purchase (independent mapping). And if you'd like help confirming data availability — or arranging a LiDAR capture of your site — book a Terrain Clarity Session to walk through your options and get personalized guidance.
