Gravel and Offroad
Overview
Profile cross-country or secondary roads with systems built for rough terrain.
- Keep all sensors inside the vehicle with the CS9400-OR.
- Collect grade changes with survey accuracy with the CS9470.
- Scan entire road surfaces with the CS8770 or CS9500.
Profile Without External Sensors
For rough terrain that is unsafe for traditional laser or LiDAR sensors the fully enclosed CS9400-OR is an accelerometer based profiler that can collect two tracks based on vehicle response. SSI’s system can accurately match an inertial profiler’s profiles through our software algorithms and electronics.
Recommended: Off Road
Highly Accurate Elevations and Grades Without a Survey Crew
The CS9470 Grade Profiler uses a military grade IMU to collect grades and cross-slopes over rough terrain. This system can be paired with a base station yielding RTK or PPK corrections for 10mm horizontal and 25mm vertical elevation accuracies – the next best accuracy behind a survey crew.
The CS9470 outputs a single or dual track profile which can be used to calculate grade changes such as Kvalue.

Survey Profilers Capture Profile and Point Clouds
The CS9500 and CS8770 Survey Profilers allow for over 350 elevation points to be collected at each transverse sample – usually 2-inches longitudinally. These systems can have a low resolution of 5mm x 5mm at slow speed.
Output high density LAS point cloud files that can be used to extract profile lines and create suspension or design models.
