DJI Zenmuse L3 with DSLRPros Care Plus: advanced LiDAR mapping and high-resolution RGB imaging

The DJI Zenmuse L3 is a long-range LiDAR and dual 100 MP RGB mapping payload built for teams that require precise 3D data across varied terrain. Designed for the Matrice 400 Series, it integrates a 1535 nm LiDAR module, high-resolution imaging, and a tightly synchronized POS system to deliver accurate, high-density point clouds and detailed RGB coverage.

This package includes the complete hardware kit plus DSLRPros Care Plus, adding 13-month accidental-damage coverage for dependable, risk-managed enterprise deployment across diverse field environments.

Technical capabilities and operational strengths

  • Long-range LiDAR detects up to 950 meters for reliable terrain scanning.
  • Dual 100 MP cameras deliver detailed mapping with broad image coverage.
  • Mechanical shutter minimizes distortion during high-precision mapping flights.
  • Integrated POS system supports centimeter-level accuracy with RTK correction.
  • Wide 107-degree horizontal FOV reduces required flight passes significantly.
  • Multiple LiDAR scan modes optimize data density for varying terrain conditions.
  • IP54-rated construction withstands dust and light rain for field reliability.
  • CFexpress Type B media supports stable logging of large LiDAR datasets.
  • Rapid capture intervals improve productivity on extensive mapping operations.
  • Full DJI software ecosystem streamlines planning, capture, and processing tasks.

High-performance LiDAR and imaging optimized for efficient field acquisition

The L3’s LiDAR enables detection up to 950 m at 10 percent reflectivity and up to 2000 m at higher reflectance, supporting reliable scanning over large survey areas. Its dual 100 MP 4/3 CMOS mapping cameras widen the horizontal field of view to 107 degrees, reducing the number of required flight lines.

Mechanical and electronic shutters enable clean, distortion-controlled imagery, while CFexpress Type B storage provides rapid data handling. With scanning modes including linear, star-shaped, and non-repetitive patterns, and pulse rates ranging from 240–480 kHz depending on DJI’s mode specifications, the L3 meets the demands of intensive geospatial workflows.

Precision, environmental resilience, and structured operational protection

The payload’s integrated POS system supports centimeter-level accuracy when paired with RTK correction, enabling survey-grade deliverables with consistent alignment. IP54 ingress protection and a –20 °C to 50 °C operating range support reliable operation year-round.

DSLRPros Care Plus enhances operational continuity by covering accidental damage from collisions, drops, water exposure, interference, and internal failures for 13 months, including one eligible replacement. This protection limits downtime and supports professional deployment schedules requiring consistent readiness.
