Introduction of LiDAR Drones And Its Principal Applications

Light detection and ranging, or #Lidarlaser, is a remote sensing technique that is increasingly being used in conjunction with drones. One can calculate the distance to the earth’s surface by using the speed of light, measuring the two-way travel time from the scanner’s laser beam, and creating a 3D point cloud.

It is possible to distinguish real-life objects in LiDAR data because it is possible to determine which surface type the return came from based on the intensity of the return signal. This does closely match how much one would find in a picture.

Let’s look at some exciting applications in which #LiDARdrones are useful.
