Seneca integrates the Ouster Rev8 OS1 Max native color lidar into its firefighting drones for obstacle avoidance, terrain following, and fuels mapping. Wildfire environments present a difficult operating case for autonomous aircraft. Smoke, dust, steep and rapidly changing terrain, and limited visibility all complicate safe flight, particularly during initial attack, when response time is critical.…
Tropical forests in the Amazon, the Congo Basin and Southeast Asia can look nearly identical from above. A new study in Nature, built on about 16 million spaceborne lidar observations, finds they respond to climate in very different ways. Congo Basin biomass tracks temperature most closely, while in Southeast Asia water availability matters most. That…
What New Bathymetric Lidar Data Reveals About One of the West’s Most Threatened Lakes Geo Week announced its first 2027 keynote, A Lake in Crisis: Mapping Utah’s Great Salt Lake, a presentation and panel discussion on a large-scale Great Salt Lake lidar project using bathymetric lidar to map the lakebed, wetlands, and deeper-water environments. The…
