Building and improving the nation’s infrastructure is a constant need. According to Statista, the nation spent $1.7 billion on road construction in 2022. Many of those roads lead to construction projects for schools, hospitals, and other structures. Whether building roads,…
You may have heard about LiDAR technology being used for self-driving vehicles to see the road and surroundings. But did you know this laser imaging detection and ranging technology has many applications in civil engineering projects, too? As a civil…
You've probably experienced turbulence during a flight. Whether or not you fear these movements, you should know that they cause delays and economic losses for airlines. But what would you think if we told you that a new tool that…
Among the contributions of our star technology to improve the quality of life and care for the environment, we can also count on it in the development and application of renewable energies. On this occasion, we are talking about LiDAR…
We have already discussed the use of LiDAR for autonomous driving. And as we anticipated, we are seeing more and more examples of applications of this technology in the automotive industry. If you want to know what's new, read on.…
LiDAR is each time more present in the daily lives of many people. Recently, it was the turn of video game fans or "gamers". Although this technology has been used for mobile applications for quite some time, it recently gained…
Bathymetric LiDAR is an airborne acquisition technology or technique that uses green wavelength to pierce the water column in order to measure the seafloor. That is why it is the most effective as well as cost-efficient technology to capture geospatial…
Airports are places with complex environments and heavy volumes of people coming in and out every day. This means that they must have efficient operations to maintain security and safety. Through LiDAR technology airports can improve daily operations, enhance security…
As mentioned in several of our articles, LiDAR technology is very useful for engineering projects. By measuring distances with very high accuracy, it makes it possible to build detailed 3D maps where people, objects, and spaces are represented. However, LiDAR…
According to recent data, global traffic deaths are on the rise. In America alone, it is estimated that 31,720 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2021. In this sense, it is important to improve traffic management to create…
