Eagle Mapping

What Eagle Mapping does

Eagle Mapping Ltd. is a privately held Canadian aerial LiDAR mapping company founded in 1985 and headquartered in Langley, British Columbia. The company provides end-to-end LiDAR data acquisition and processing services using a vertically integrated operating model: it owns and operates top-of-the-line RIEGL LiDAR sensors and a dedicated aircraft fleet of Piper Navajos, Cessna 206, and Cessna 210 aircraft based at its Lower Mainland aviation hub, and processes the resulting point clouds in-house using the Terrasolid Suite. Its deliverable catalog spans orthophotos, bare earth models, contours, digital terrain models, hillshade, slope, intensity, canopy height, vegetation density, and surface roughness maps, output in industry-standard formats (LAS/LAZ, GeoTIFF, DWG/DXF) compatible with ArcGIS, QGIS, AutoCAD Civil 3D, MicroStation, and PLS-CADD.

Eagle Mapping sells exclusively through direct enterprise sales — regional sales consultants for Canada, a US office in Bellingham, WA led by a Vice President of Sales & Marketing, and a Mexico City office covering Central and South America. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with clients specifying area of interest, pulse density (2–50 pulses/m²), and accuracy standards (standard ±15cm vertical / ±30cm horizontal; enhanced ±10cm / ±20cm with ground control). Revenue mechanics are professional-services project billing rather than subscription or SaaS.

The customer base is entirely B2B enterprise, organized around vertical specializations in Mining (terrain mapping, volumetric analysis, drill pad placement), Engineering and Municipal/Infrastructure (road alignment, corridor mapping, site grading), Forestry (timber volume, biomass, harvest planning), Energy (powerline and pipeline corridors, wind, hydroelectric), Environmental Studies (wetland delineation, hydrology), Indigenous Peoples (land mapping and resource management), and Archaeology (feature detection under canopy). Named reference customers include Centerra Gold, EES Consulting, Cook Engineering, AP&T, Cassidy Gold, Element Solutions, and GeoCloud Analytics. The company is privately held with no disclosed external investors or funding rounds.

Core offering

Eagle Mapping performs aerial LiDAR data acquisition and aerial photography using its own RIEGL sensors and aircraft fleet (Piper Navajo, Cessna 206/210) based in Langley, British Columbia. The acquired data is then classified and processed in-house using the Terrasolid Suite to produce derived mapping deliverables such as orthophotos, bare earth models, contours, digital terrain models, hill shade, slope, intensity, canopy height, vegetation density, and surface roughness maps for enterprise clients.

Product overview

Eagle Mapping is a LiDAR data acquisition and processing services provider offering a three-part service model: Acquisition (in-house airborne LiDAR and aerial photography), Processing (using the Terrasolid Suite), and Deliverables (orthophotos, bare earth models, contours, digital terrain models, hill shade models, slope models, intensity models, canopy height models, vegetation density models, and surface roughness maps). The company serves industries including Mining, Engineering, Forestry, Indigenous Peoples, Energy, Environmental Studies, and Archaeology across North, Central, and South America.

Direct peers

• NV5 Geospatial (formerly Quantum Spatial): NV5 Geospatial operates one of North America's largest aerial LiDAR and remote sensing mapping service businesses, offering acquisition, processing, and geospatial analytics. It directly competes with Eagle Mapping across forestry, infrastructure, mining, and environmental end markets using similar sensor stacks and processing workflows.
• Woolpert: Woolpert is a U.S.-based architecture, engineering, and geospatial firm with substantial aerial LiDAR, photogrammetry, and surveying service lines serving federal, state, and commercial clients. It is a direct competitor in airborne mapping services across many of the same verticals as Eagle Mapping.
• Merrick & Company: Merrick & Company provides geospatial solutions including LiDAR, photogrammetry, and remote sensing for utilities, infrastructure, and government clients. It is a direct peer in the aerial surveying services space and competes for many of the same engineering and energy corridor contracts.
• Aerial Services Inc. (ASI): Aerial Services Inc. is a dedicated aerial imaging and LiDAR acquisition firm operating its own aircraft and sensor fleet, serving government, engineering, and resource clients. Its business model and scale closely mirror Eagle Mapping's vertically integrated approach.
• Ayres Associates: Ayres Associates offers aerial mapping, LiDAR, and geospatial services as part of a broader engineering firm, with a substantial history in airborne surveying. It is a direct competitor for municipal, transportation, and environmental mapping projects in North America.

Broad incumbents

• Fugro: Fugro is a global geo-services leader offering airborne LiDAR, site characterization, and geospatial data services alongside marine and subsurface offerings. While much larger and more diversified, it competes in the same enterprise aerial mapping and survey procurement opportunities.
• WSP: WSP is a global engineering consultancy with significant geomatics and geospatial service capabilities, often delivering aerial LiDAR and survey work as part of larger infrastructure mandates. It represents an incumbent that competes for end-to-end programs where Eagle Mapping might otherwise be a subcontractor.
• AECOM: AECOM is a global infrastructure consulting firm with an in-house surveying, mapping, and geospatial practice serving transportation, water, and environmental clients. It is a broad incumbent whose aerial LiDAR capabilities overlap with Eagle Mapping's engineering and municipal vertical.
• Stantec: Stantec is a major North American engineering and design firm with a geospatial and remote sensing practice supporting mining, environmental, and infrastructure clients. It is a broad incumbent that often competes for the same enterprise survey contracts as Eagle Mapping.
• Trimble: Trimble is a major geospatial technology provider whose software, GNSS, and survey solutions are embedded in the workflows Eagle Mapping's customers use. While not a direct aerial services competitor, it shapes the buyer ecosystem and could enter or partner into the services space.
