Questions tagged [lidar]

LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is an optical remote sensing technology that measures properties of scattered light to find range and/or other information of a distant target.

If the question is not solely about programming it might be suitable on gis.stackexchange.com

Programming questions related to lidar geospatial data are also welcome on GIS SE.
