05CNT04Light Detection and Ranging (Lidar)
Lidar is an active remote sensing technology that uses laser pulses to measure distances to objects or surfaces. By calculating the time it takes for each laser pulse to travel to a target and return, lidar systems generate highly accurate 3D point clouds representing terrain, vegetation, and built structures. Vertical accuracy often within 10–15 cm.
2018-309-DDCoastal Zone Mapping and Imaging Lidar (CZMIL)
CZMIL is an advanced airborne lidar system designed for high-resolution mapping of coastal environments, integrating topographic and bathymetric lidar with RGB and hyperspectral imaging. It is a multi-sensor airborne mapping system developed under the National Coastal Mapping Program (NCMP) by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and partners.
