Raw point clouds are rich, but they are not always practical deliverables. Surface modeling is the step that turns those raw points into a terrain representation that is easier to contour, easier to draft, and easier to work with.
What it involves
Trees, structures, objects, noise, and imperfect classification all affect the surface. A technically complete model can still be poor if it does not faithfully represent the ground, and only the ground. Aerotas uses a mix of automated tools and human expertise and QA/QC to clean the final surface.
Why this matters
Good surface modeling makes Aerotas deliverables easier to use in real CAD workflows because it creates a faithful working surface that supports contours, drafting, and design decisions.
