AAerolaser System
Aerolaser System is a Spanish geospatial technology company (founded 2008, based in Gran Canaria) that designs and integrates LiDAR, photogrammetry, and thermal sensor systems for capturing and analyzing data on infrastructure such as power lines, railways, roads, and pipelines. It builds proprietary hardware (AeSystem, AeMMS, AeCU, AeDrone) and software (DALIA digital-twin platform, AeMission, AePost), operates in 25+ countries, and took a minority corporate-VC investment from Elewit (Redeia/Red Eléctrica's venture arm) in 2021.
