The selected system must provide stable flight performance, autonomous flight planning, terrain following, and high‑precision LiDAR data collection suitable for forest inventory and terrain mapping and have an accuracy of approximately ±3 cm and precision of ±0.5 cm to meet performance requirements for reliable spatial data acquisition.
