LIDAR is a hot topic in Georgia these days. So – for the January 2016 Luncheon more LIDAR.
“LIDAR Updates – Changes in the Technology and Coverage”
Speaker Name: Ernie Smith
Presentation Summary: Like all Technology LiDAR has become very dynamic with new sensors and available data. We will talk about the advancements and availability of Sensors, Standards, and Data sets. There are many changes in the technology and unless you are working with it everyday, it’s difficult to keep up with all of the advancements.
Standards are also changing due to the sensor technology advancement which means practices and applications for LiDAR are growing. Also drones are being used for data collection and there are some things to be aware of for that use of Technology. We will present a map that gives our best understanding of where LiDAR data exists in Georgia as well.

Richard, We are sitting in the Cumberland URISA session on LIDAR today in Clarksville. Several of the present Mid-South ASPRS board members are here and of course your name came up. So I thought I would check on your blog. Glad to know that we seem to be thinking about the same things. Thank you for the work you have done and hopefully we can continue to collaborate. Thanks again for your work.
I hope you mean Randy and not Richard. Anyway – hey if you’re in a Cumberland URISA session tell them I renewed their Domain name. Also tell anyone you can process lidar in GRASS also. Woot.
