LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to measure distances and create high-resolution, three-dimensional maps of objects and environments.
LiDAR works by shooting out rapid laser pulses (usually invisible infrared light). These pulses hit an object or surface and bounce back to a sensor. By measuring how long it takes for the light to return, the system calculates the distance to the object.
LiDAR pulses are capable of penetrating through foliage and other obstructions, enabling the acquisition of intricate details beyond what traditional methods offer, making it especially effective for capturing surfaces hidden by undergrowth, trees, and various vegetation types.
