The Challenge of Coastal Geospatial Data For all the advances in geospatial technology over the past two decades, the coastal zone has remained stubbornly hard to capture. It is too dynamic for static surveying, too shallow for deep-water acoustic systems, and too vast for any ground-based approach to cover meaningfully. New Zealand, a nation with…
For many people, LiDAR is still strongly associated with autonomous vehicles: cars scanning roads, detecting pedestrians, cyclists, lane boundaries, and obstacles. This association makes sense because autonomous driving has been one of the most visible areas for LiDAR development. However, the future of LiDAR is not limited to vehicles. A more interesting question is what…
