lidar-derived data products
Lidar-derived data products are detailed three-dimensional maps created using laser scanning technology called lidar. This technology sends laser pulses from a sensor to the ground, measuring the time it takes for the light to return. The resulting data captures precise details of terrain, buildings, vegetation, and other features. These products can be used for mapping landscapes, planning construction projects, managing forests, or studying environmental changes. Essentially, lidar converts laser measurements into accurate, high-resolution digital representations of the physical world, enabling better analysis and decision-making across various fields.
