What is LiDAR?

• LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is a technology that determines distance to an object or surface using laser pulses.

LiDAR Acquisition

• LiDAR Data can be Acquired using Several Methods+ Fixed Wing (UAS)

+ Rotary Wing (UAS)

+ Mobile+ Terrestrial

• The correct acquisition platform is determined by the type of project

LiDAR Point Density Ranges• 1 – 12 ppm for fixed wing• 10 - 50 ppm rotary wing• 100 - 3,000 ppm mobile• 1,000+ ppm terrestrial

Fixed Wing vs Rotary

• Fixed wing has longer endurance 90 min to 8 hours• Fixed wing can carry a heavier payload• Fixed wing noise signature is insignificant for sensitive

environment concerns• Fixed wing subject to high, gusty winds• Rotary is better for hovering, high resolution inspection• Rotary is good for vertical takeoffs in limited operational

airspace and close confines• Rotary is easier launch and recovery

LiDAR Benefits

• Significantly shortens field acquisition time• Safety Considerations – Reduces personnel presence in

the ROW• Reutilization of LiDAR for future feature extraction• Virtual surveys can be performed in the office from the Point

Cloud• Existing Above Ground Infrastructure• Slope Analysis Studies• Rebuilds• As-built• Greenfields• Vegetation Management
