LIDAR

LIDAR
Light Detection and Ranging 


Using optimal remote sensing technology LIDARs use a laser to extract highly detailed imagery of a surface. This technology can measure the distance or other properties of a target by illuminating it with light. This technology is used in Geomatics, archaeology, geography and geology. The above image is an image from downtown Kansas.
