Overview

Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology has matured to a level such that there is a variety of sophisticated “off the shelf” sensor and software packages now available. With the appropriate resources and training one can be operational in the capture and processing of data within a very short time-frame; however this is only the beginning of a complex, spatially enabled journey into calibration, flight planning, airborne kinematic GNSS, ground surveys, geoids, height datums, point classification and digital elevation products. This presentation provides an insight into this somewhat mysterious world where the ever increasing expectations of stakeholders can only be reliably satisfied by the application of best practice. Using the experience gained from establishing a LiDAR capability within the NSW Land and Property Management Authority (LPMA) and his quality assurance activities with external projects, the Author will highlight the key issues that must be addressed in order to meet the compelling need for high-accuracy elevation data and associated specifications.
