Description
DJI Zenmuse L3 Ireland-LiDAR Payload for Matrice 400 in Ireland
DJI Zenmuse L3 Ireland is a high-precision LiDAR payload designed for the Matrice 400 platform. Built for professional surveying, mapping and inspection projects, it delivers accurate point cloud data and integrated RGB imaging in a single compact system. Available in Ireland, the Zenmuse L3 supports demanding drone mapping workflows across construction, infrastructure and energy sectors.
LiDAR Mapping & Planning Applications
Zenmuse L3 is a payload, so a working survey configuration also needs the compatible Matrice 400 aircraft, field power and a processing workflow. Use our M400 L3 terrain workflow guide to define the coordinate reference, checkpoints, ground classification and handover files. Then compare the SV-03 LiDAR Survey Professional Package against your brief, checking its written hardware and software list rather than assuming those items accompany the payload.
Take a Closer Look
1535nm Long-Range LiDAR
Zenmuse L3 achieves a maximum detection range of 950 m at a pulse rate of 100 kHz, tested under 100 klx ambient light and on objects with 10% reflectivity
Dual 100MP RGB Mapping Camera System
Equipped with dual 100MP 4/3 CMOS RGB sensors and a mechanical shutter, Zenmuse L3 delivers significantly enhanced accuracy and efficiency. Pixel binning supports an effective 25MP resolution.
Adjustable LiDAR Acquisition
Zenmuse L3 offers adjustable laser pulse rates and scanning modes for different survey tasks. Select acquisition settings for the terrain, target reflectivity and required deliverable; maximum detection range is not a permitted flight altitude.
Superior Penetration
L3 supports up to 16 returns at 100 kHz or 350 kHz. Multiple-return acquisition and its small laser spot can help capture more ground detail beneath vegetation. Review actual ground coverage and check points when assessing the survey output.
High Efficiency
When mounted on DJI Matrice 400, Zenmuse L3 delivers outstanding efficiency. At a flight altitude of 300 m, a single flight can cover up to 10 km², enabling up to 100 km² of daily coverage
End-To-End Solution
Zenmuse L3 integrates with DJI’s ecosystem to deliver an end-to-end mapping solution. Enjoy simpler, unified workflows from data acquisition and processing to application.

Frequently Asked Questions
Compatible with DJI Matrice 400, and requires the use of the Zenmuse L3 single gimbal connector. Please ensure that the gimbal connector is connected to the E1 port on the aircraft’s underside. Otherwise mapping accuracy will be reduced.
290 m (center), 200 m (edge)@10% reflectivity, 2000 kHz, recommended operating altitude ≤ 50 m
400 m (center), 280 m (edge)@10% reflectivity, 1000 kHz, recommended operating altitude ≤ 100 m
700 m (center), 500 m (edge)@10% reflectivity, 350 kHz, recommended operating altitude ≤ 300 m
950 m (center), 650 m (edge)@10% reflectivity, 100 kHz, recommended operating altitude ≤ 500 m
1. Range Definition: The range is defined as the distance at which 50% of the emitted laser pulses are detected. If a laser beam hits more than one subject, the total laser transmitter power is split and the achievable range is reduced.
2. Test Conditions: 100 klx ambient light, within the central area of the FOV, using a flat subject with a size larger than the laser beam diameter, a perpendicular angle of incidence, and an atmospheric visibility of 23 km.
3. The maximum detection range is 900 m by default. For a longer range, contact DJI support or an authorized dealer.
Hardware performance improvements:
1. Zenmuse L3 delivers enhanced LiDAR performance. When measured at the same distance, Zenmuse L3 produces a laser spot about one-fifth the size of L2 and supports up to 16 returns. This means much stronger penetration capability, greater range, and higher ranging accuracy.
2. The new dual 100MP RGB mapping camera system brings a horizontal FOV of up to 107°, compared to L2’s 73.7°.
3. POS accuracy is improved to 0.02° for heading, and 0.01° for roll and pitch.
Accuracy and efficiency improvements:
1. Zenmuse L3’s vertical accuracy is better than 3 cm at 120m altitude, better than 5 cm at 300 m, and better than 10 cm at 500 m. The point cloud thickness produced by Zenmuse L3 is only half that of Zenmuse L2, supporting advanced analysis and high-accuracy applications.
2. With a smaller laser spot and higher single-pulse energy, Zenmuse L3 offers superior penetration capability. In terrain mapping and similar applications, it captures more ground points with greater completeness, significantly improving the accuracy and integrity of terrain data for precise surface fitting and reconstruction.
3. When mounted on DJI Matrice 400, Zenmuse L3 delivers outstanding efficiency. At a flight altitude of 300 m, a single flight can cover up to 10 km², enabling up to 100 km² of daily coverage.
The dual RGB mapping camera system expands the horizontal FOV to 107°, enabling each acquisition to cover a broader area. Even with a 20% LiDAR side overlap ratio, you can capture data for both digital orthophoto maps (DOM) and digital elevation models (DEM) in a single flight, thereby greatly improving operational efficiency.
DJI Matrice 400 supports Real-Time Follow at altitudes from 30 to 300 m.
