Maude Pelletier was a geomorphologist working within the Yukon territories learning permafrost, producing exact high-resolution aerial pictures utilizing photogrammetry to get elevation fashions and extra. She tells the story of encountering the primary lidar payloads for drones, and realizing the way it might make a major impression to her work. This led to founding an organization that created new improvements in drone lidar expertise.
On this interview, Maude describes parts of lidar expertise, compares and contrasts lidar with photogrammetry, discusses methods for creating level clouds, and explores typical use circumstances.
