Use cases

If you record LiDAR or camera data and still write glue scripts to turn it into 3D, this page is for you.

LidarFlow replaces the pile of bag-conversion commands, topic checks, mapping scripts, and handoffs that grows around a repeated rosbag or MCAP workflow — whether you reconstruct from LiDAR or a single camera.

For autonomous vehicle teams

When road-test data keeps ending in one-off scripts, LidarFlow gives you one browser path from rosbag or MCAP to a mapped point cloud you can review across the team.

For robotics field validation

Use one workflow for upload, topic validation, run status, and artifact delivery instead of rebuilding the post-processing chain every time a new recording lands.

For site capture and reconstruction

If your team records LiDAR — or just a forward camera — and then spends days cleaning up the path from capture to a delivered point cloud, LidarFlow replaces that glue. With only a camera, the monocular metric-depth path still gets you metric 3D.

Best fit

Who this platform is for

  • Teams already recording LiDAR and tired of stitching together post-processing scripts
  • Operators who need visible QA around mapping and georeferencing runs
  • Leads who want a repeatable workflow without standing up a full internal SLAM platform first
Delivery

Why teams use it

The value is not only map creation. It is also the audit trail: what topics were selected, what settings were used, what worker processed the run, and which artifacts came back out.
