LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing method that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges to the Earth. It is a distance technology that sends light to the ground and measures the time it takes for the reflected light to return. LiDAR systems are very accurate because they are being controlled in a platform, and they send over 160,000 pulses per second.
