LIDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It is similiar to Radar, but it uses light rather than sound in order to find its particular targets. Once the light hits the object of interest it relays the color and distance back to the source. This is a shot of Oregon land using LIDAR. This technique is used in almost every field of industry.
