Arthian delivers high-efficiency mobile mapping surveys for transport corridors, industrial estates and large geographic areas across the UK. Using vehicle-mounted LiDAR, GNSS and panoramic imaging systems, we capture engineering-grade spatial data at speed—reducing site time, safety risk and cost.
Mobile Mapping for the Modern World
We work with clients including BEAR Scotland to support transport route planning and maintenance programmes. Our mobile mapping outputs help identify asset condition, infrastructure degradation and priority areas for intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is mobile mapping?
Mobile mapping is the process of collecting spatial data from a moving vehicle using LiDAR, GNSS and imaging systems. It’s ideal for surveying roads, railways and large sites quickly and safely.
Can you capture roadside assets like signage and fencing?
Yes—our systems detect and geolocate roadside features including signage, barriers, fencing, verges and street furniture. This supports asset inventories and maintenance planning.
Can mobile mapping be used for route condition monitoring?
Absolutely. We capture surface condition, degradation and change detection to support transport maintenance programmes and prioritisation.
Do you provide GIS and BIM integration?
Yes—we deliver GIS-ready datasets and BIM-compatible models to support planning, design and digital asset management.
