Research Summary

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is a remote sensing technology that uses laser beams to measure the distance, shape, and position of objects or surfaces. It works by emitting millions of laser pulses in all directions and analyzing the reflected signals to create a 3D map or image of the target area. LIDAR is used in a variety of applications, such as autonomous driving, aerial mapping, geology, archaeology, and forestry, among others. Its high-resolution and accuracy make it an essential tool for many industries that rely on detailed and precise data.
