An overview of LIDAR Technology

Image

Light Detection and Ranging is abbreviated as LIDAR, is a remote sensing technology. This technology uses light to measure variable distances to the Earth. The light is emitted in the form of   pulsed laser. This technique is an integrated part of remote sensing technology. The sensor emits several thousand infrared laser pulses per second. Depending upon the location and orientation of laser scanner, the range of each echo from a laser pulse is calculated. Thus the received results help to build a 3D elevation map of the surface being measured. LIDAR technology has wide range of applications of which one such application is in agriculture in identifing the areas which require more water or fertilizer.
