Turning mobile mapping, drone and laser scan data into usable 3D results.
MapTerra analyzes point clouds and imagery from mobile mapping, drone surveys, terrestrial laser scanning and related capture methods for infrastructure operators, engineering firms, cities, utilities and construction companies.
What MapTerra does
The website sharpens the profile around one central promise: processing and structuring 3D data for office surveying, GIS, CAD, BIM, documentation and condition assessment.
Who we work for
In addition to infrastructure operators, we support engineering firms, cities, utilities and construction companies.
Infrastructure operators
road, rail, waterways and linear asset networks
Engineering & planning
reliable survey and design inputs for projects and asset stock
Cities & utilities
inventory, condition, documentation and digital processes
Services at a glance
MapTerra covers the full processing chain for point clouds and imagery – from raw capture data to practical deliverables.
Mobile mapping for road & rail
Evaluations for road surfaces, markings, lighting, rail infrastructure, profiles, clearance envelopes and topographic derivatives.
Georeferencing & registration
GNSS/IMU/SLAM processing, run-to-run registration, control points and quality assurance for robust absolute accuracy.
Classification & feature extraction
Extraction of traffic assets, edges, signs, signals, rail assets, vegetation and technical equipment, including attribution.
GIS, CAD & BIM
Standardized outputs for planning, operations and documentation – accurate, compliant and aligned with your workflows.
AI & viewer platform
AI-supported condition assessment, anonymization and browser-based delivery of large image and point cloud datasets.
Data sources & systems
Processing of data from JAWESO, Trimble, Riegl, Leica, CHCNAV, NavVis, TLS, UAV/UAS and additional systems.

Accurate data – easy to share
Our workflows cover data preprocessing and georeferencing, registration, classification and delivery in the browser or as GIS, CAD and BIM outputs. This turns large data volumes into usable inventory and condition information.
- Point cloud preprocessing and quality control
- Feature extraction for road, rail and technical infrastructure
- Data models for planning, operations and documentation
- Scalable delivery for many parallel users
News
Company update on the rebranding and renamed website domain.
DataDEV GmbH is now MapTerra GmbH
Our new name makes our focus easier to understand: analyzing 3D data – especially point clouds and imagery – from mobile mapping, drone surveys, terrestrial laser scanning and related capture methods. For our customers, all essential parts remain the same: team, contacts, services and quality standards continue unchanged. Only our company name and our domain mapterra.de are new.
