LIDAR



LIDAR is a newer technology that develops highly detailed images of the surface of the earth with the use of lasers. These images are mostly created and formed through the use of planes with LIDAR equipment attached to them, they fly over areas recording the phenomena on the surface of the Earth. This specific image shows the lower manhattan area, showing the larger buildings relative to the smaller buildings and areas that are just flat.
