ENVM 676 - Intro to LiDAR Technology

Unit(s): 2

In this course students explore the fundamentals of and current developments in LiDAR, a suite of active remote sensing methods that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges (variable distances) to the Earth, and discuss different applications where LiDAR is being used. The lab offers an opportunity for students to gain hands-on experience using LiDAR processing systems to complete a broad range of applications including topographic mapping, hydrologic mapping, vegetation analysis and 3D modeling of urban infrastructure.
