LIDAR


LIDAR (Light Amplification by Simulated Emission of Radiation) uses a 3D image to measure distance or other areas that can be illuminated by light. A laser is used to capture a picture of the earth and display depth, this process is known as Active Remote Sensing. The picture above actively demonstrates these principals by converting the building to 3D.
