Road Edges and Boundaries

Trace curbs, corridor edges, and task-defined boundaries with 3D polylines. Review vertices against the measured point cloud.

Poles and Roadside Assets

Label discrete infrastructure assets with appropriate 3D geometry. Attach consistent class and condition properties where the evidence supports them.

Structure and Surface Point Labels

Paint point classes for structures and other defined scene regions. Inspect sparse areas and adjacent class boundaries before accepting the result.

Capture Sessions and Dataset Versions

Organize supported scan scenes by capture session, location metadata, and task. Version the selected data and review labels against shared definitions.

Built for AI Data at Scale

Annotate complex LiDAR datasets faster with AI-assisted automation, scalable workflows, and lower operational costs.
15×
Faster LiDAR data annotation

Batch workflows, camera-assisted Find Similar and Auto-Tracking, and interpolation reduce repetitive manual LiDAR labeling.

85%
Automated LiDAR annotation

On average, 85% of LiDAR labels are pre-labeled automatically, then reviewed and refined by humans.

15×
Lower Training Data Costs

The cost per accepted label can be up to 15× lower as curation, annotation, and QA are automated.

Annotation Methods for Infrastructure Mapping

Choose spatial geometry for assets and boundaries, or point labels for structures and scene regions.

3D Polylines and Spatial Shapes

Use point-based geometry to represent boundaries and individual assets. Keep vertex placement, class definitions, and required properties consistent across the dataset.

Point-Level Review with Source Context

Inspect class assignments in 3D and available calibrated camera views. Resolve mislabeled regions and incomplete properties before creating a reviewed annotation release.

Infrastructure LiDAR Annotation FAQs

What is LiDAR annotation for infrastructure mapping?

It is the labeling of infrastructure features in point-cloud data for downstream perception or analysis models. Examples include road boundaries, roadside assets, structures, and point-level scene classes.

Can I label curbs and road boundaries?

Yes. Use 3D polylines and other supported spatial geometry to trace the features defined by your task. Inspect the vertices against the measured points and document how ambiguous or incomplete boundaries should be handled.

Can I label poles, barriers, and other assets?

Yes. Define the required asset classes and choose suitable 3D geometry or point segmentation. Use shared properties for task-relevant attributes and review uncertain labels with the original scene in view.

Which point-cloud formats can I use?

Upload PCD, PLY, and BIN point clouds as individual files, ZIP scenes, or folders. Use scene manifests to preserve frame sequences, sensor definitions, calibration, and poses for multi-sensor recordings.

When should I use point segmentation instead of spatial shapes?

Use point segmentation when each measured point needs a class label, such as road surface, vegetation, or structure. Use polylines for boundaries and cuboids or other spatial shapes for individual assets.

How can I keep labels consistent across capture sessions?

Use a shared ontology, required properties, and explicit boundary definitions. Organize recordings with available metadata and tags, then create dataset versions for selected sessions and review labels against representative examples.

How are infrastructure labels checked for quality?

Combine expert review, standalone-scene Consensus, and approved Quality Gate benchmarks. Review spatial geometry and point labels in context, resolve assigned issues, and check required properties before release.

How can I review boundaries in sparse scans?

Inspect boundary vertices in 3D and calibrated camera views where available. Apply shared rules for gaps and partial visibility, record uncertain cases as issues, and resolve them before accepting the labels.

Can I export the reviewed infrastructure annotations?

Export supported LiDAR annotations in Unitlab Unified Export Format (UUEF) with spatial geometry, point labels, tracks where present, and scene metadata. Check the coordinate handling and class definitions against your downstream processing pipeline.
