Abstract:

LiDAR-based elevation surveys

are a cost-effective means for

mapping topography over large

areas. LiDAR surveys use an

airplane-mounted or ground-based

laser radar unit to scan terrain.

Post-processing techniques are

applied to remove vegetation and

reveal the bare-earth elevations.

In recent years, LiDAR hardware

and processing technologies

have improved greatly. LiDAR

surveys are now cost-competitive

with traditional aerial topographic

surveys and offer the capability

to produce very high resolutions

(potentially over 50 points per m2

with <10 cm vertical accuracy for

airborne systems).
