A three-dimensional view of the terrain
LiDAR measures distance using laser pulses and creates dense three-dimensional point sets for interpreting terrain, structures and vegetation.
Main applications
The value of the data depends on the technical objective and processing strategy.
- Digital terrain models
- Slopes, pits and mine faces
- Industrial plant mapping
- Volumetric inventories
- Geometric basis for engineering analysis
Technology with engineering context
A point cloud becomes useful information only when it is connected to project decisions and delivered with the required accuracy and reference system.
