DJI Zenmuse L3 LiDAR Sensor (Matrice 400)

DJI's flagship LiDAR, exclusive to the Matrice 400. The Zenmuse L3 pairs a 1535 nm laser with dual 100MP RGB cameras to capture survey-grade point clouds across ~10 km² in a single flight at 300 m, roughly four times the coverage of the L2.

Built for large-area topographic survey, powerline corridors, digital twins, forestry and mining. Requires the DJI Matrice 400, processing flows straight into DJI Terra.

12 months of DJI Care Enterprise Plus

The L3 comes with its own 12 months of DJI Care Enterprise Plus, separate from the aircraft's plan and auto-activated when you first activate the sensor. Accidental damage to the gimbal, LiDAR, cameras or IMU from a collision, water or a mistake at the controls is repaired or replaced free, as many times as it takes, until the repairs reach DJI's coverage amount for the L3, with no excess to pay. The CFexpress card is not covered, payloads have no flyaway cover, and DJI pays the freight both ways within Australia. Care covers accidents: DJI's Australian warranty, 12 months on the main parts, still covers faults.
