LIDAR POINT CLOUD

Feature extraction from LiDAR point cloud data

Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is a  technique that uses remote sensation using a laser light light  to measure the elevation in buildings, ground and forest. With the help of ultraviolet, visible or near-infrared sources LiDAR senses the objects.

The result is a variable distance of objects on the ground, giving us an accurate 3D representation of Earth's surface. It allows us to examine natural and artificial features precisely. 

Lidar is widely used in different applications, including agriculture and forest management, architecture, transport and urban planning, surveying, geology, mining and heritage mapping.
