What GreenValley International Inc does

GreenValley International Inc (GVI) is a Berkeley, California-based provider of LiDAR-based 3D survey, mapping, and robotics automation solutions, founded in 2012 and operating with 101–250 employees. The company sells an integrated portfolio of hardware platforms — handheld SLAM scanners (LiGrip O2, O2 Lite), mobile laser scanning systems (LiMobile M2, M2 Pro), and UAV LiDAR systems (LiAir H600, H800, X4, X3C) — paired with its proprietary LiDAR360 point cloud processing software and vertical modules (LiDAR360 MLS, LiPowerline). The combined hardware–software stack is positioned for asset-light, end-to-end workflows rather than component resale, and LiDAR360 also supports third-party hardware such as the DJI L2 to broaden the addressable install base. Underlying technologies include LiDAR, UAV, SLAM, photogrammetry, and 3D spatial representation, with point cloud "intelligent extraction" and autonomous flight as the most AI-adjacent features.

GVI monetizes through three revenue streams: one-time hardware sales of LiDAR systems, one-time software licensing for LiDAR360 and its variants, and professional services for turnkey deployments. Pricing is quote-based with no public tiers disclosed, and the company maintains both an owned e-commerce storefront and an enterprise field sales motion targeting professional surveyors, engineers, and mapping specialists. End customers span powerline and utility inspection (the primary vertical), forestry, terrain and topographic surveying, mining, and high-definition mapping for autonomous vehicles and smart cities. Distribution is global via the company website, with a Berkeley, California headquarters as the only documented office.

Broad incumbents

• Trimble Geospatial: Major surveying and mapping solutions provider with mobile mapping, terrestrial scanning, and GNSS products plus Trimble Business Center software. Comparable to GVI as a broad incumbent serving the same professional surveyor and infrastructure customer base with overlapping hardware-plus-software bundles.
• Leica Geosystems (Hexagon): Hexagon's surveying division and a global incumbent in geospatial measurement hardware and software. Directly comparable to GVI because it sells terrestrial, mobile, and airborne LiDAR/scanning systems plus processing software (e.g., Leica Cyclone) to the same surveying, infrastructure, and utility customers GVI targets, but at much greater scale and with broader product breadth.
• DJI Enterprise: World's largest commercial drone manufacturer, whose L2 LiDAR is integrated with GVI's LiDAR360 software. Comparable to GVI as both a partner and competitor: DJI sells UAV LiDAR hardware plus DJI Terra software overlapping GVI's LiAir and LiDAR360 offerings for the same surveying and inspection customers.

Direct peers

• Hesai Group: Public Chinese LiDAR manufacturer with strong automotive focus and expanding into robotics and industrial applications. Comparable to GVI as a multi-platform LiDAR hardware peer, though Hesai is far larger, better capitalized, and concentrates on automotive-grade sensors rather than surveying workflows.
• YellowScan: French designer and manufacturer of UAV LiDAR mapping solutions bundled with its own CloudStation processing software. Directly comparable to GVI's LiAir UAV systems and LiDAR360 software combination, targeting the same drone-based surveying and forestry customer segment.
• Phoenix LiDAR Systems: US-based provider of UAV and backpack LiDAR mapping systems with the Phoenix Spatial Explorer software platform. Directly comparable to GVI because both offer multi-platform LiDAR hardware plus proprietary processing software for surveying, forestry, and corridor mapping customers.
• RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems: Austrian manufacturer of airborne, terrestrial, mobile, and industrial LiDAR scanners plus the RiPROCESS/RiMAP software suite. Closely comparable to GVI because both offer multi-platform LiDAR hardware with proprietary processing software targeting surveying, forestry, mining, and corridor mapping applications.
• TerraSolid (Terrasolid Ltd.): Developer of TerraScan, TerraModel, and TerraPhoto point cloud processing software widely used by LiDAR professionals. Comparable to GVI's LiDAR360 platform as a competing point cloud processing software suite used by surveyors, forestry, and utility inspection customers.
• Velodyne Lidar (Ouster): Combined Velodyne and Ouster, a LiDAR sensor and software company after the 2023 merger. Comparable to GVI as a hardware-first LiDAR peer, though Velodyne/Ouster's primary end markets skew toward automotive and robotics rather than surveying/forestry/utilities.

Emerging players

• GeoSLAM (part of GeoCue): Provider of handheld and mobile SLAM-based LiDAR scanners now operating under GeoCue Group. Comparable to GVI's LiGrip handheld SLAM line because both offer portable SLAM scanners plus processing workflows aimed at building interior, forestry, and asset inspection use cases.
