To better serve the needs of customers, distributors and staff, “whilst consistently innovating,” LiDAR scanning technology and services company 3D Laser Mapping and 3D mobile mapping technology sister company GeoSLAM have merged. Almost immediately the GeoSLAM distributor network will have access to the full suite of 3D Laser Mapping products and services. GeoSLAM will be the name and brand of the new merged company. Its products are already widely used in underground mine mapping, such as the ZEB-REVO handheld scanner solutions.

“GeoSLAM Distributors will benefit from 3D Laser Mapping’s established global industry leadership, investment, research and development. 3D Laser Mapping will provide resources and structure to support and continue innovating the GeoSLAM product family.” The team will be in the GeoSLAM offices in Ruddington, Nottingham, UK. “This merger strengthens our strategic partnerships and underscores our commitment to investing in LiDAR technology, projects and services; providing greater global opportunities.”

“Combining GeoSLAM’s market strength and global distribution outlets with 3D Laser Mapping’s industry expertise builds an incredible leader in the industry. 3D Laser Mapping and GeoSLAM, who have worked together successfully on creative projects with a proven track record of success, can now expand their research and development on an expansive platform. The company will combine the best of the two organisations. They both have very different skill sets with GeoSLAM specialising in global sales, marketing and distribution, whilst 3D Laser Mapping brings advanced R&D capabilities that will enable the new organisation to develop next generation products.”
