What is LIDAR ?
• Light Detection And Ranging
• Remote sensing technology
• Similar to RADAR
• Uses shorter wavelength of EM-spectrum
• Measures properties of scattered light
• System based on a Laser Sensor
INTRODUCTION
LASER
• Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
• Laser + Receiver System=LIDAR
• Monochromatic,Directional,Coherent
• Use of Lasers
• Measure objects that are the same size or larger than its own
wavelength.
• The Scattering Process –Rayleigh,RAMAN,Fluorescence
General Description
Regions of Electromagnetic Spectrum:
• Different Performance: on solid surface,water, on
vegetation
• pinpoint targeting
• Lidar operates in U.V,visible and infrared region
• Wavelengths in a range from about 10 m.m to the UV
LIDAR RADAR
Uses optical signals(Near
IR,visible).wavelengths~1um
Uses microwave
signals.Wavelengths~1cm(Approx 100,000
times longer than Near IR)
Shorter wavelengths allow detection of
smaller objects(cloud
particles,aerosols).
Target size limited by longer wavelength
Focussed beam and high frequency
permit high spatial resolution.(<1m
horizontal).
Beam width and antenna length limit
spatial resolution(10s of meters)
Downward looking sensor Side looking sensor
Limited to clear atmospheric
conditions,daytime or nighttime
coverage.
Can operate in presence of clouds.Daytime
or Nighttime coverage.
LIDAR Vs RADAR
HISTORY OF LIDAR
• Christian Huelsmeyer’s, “Telemobiloscope”-1904
• LASER - theorized by Albert Einstein 1917,
designed by Gordon Gould in 1957,
developed by American physicist,Theodore Maiman in 1960
• Global Positioning Systems (GPS) -1980
• First commercial airborne Lidar systems -1995
TECHNOLOGIES USED
• 3 Technologies in LIDAR:-
Lasers – Laser sensor
Global Positioning System(GPS) – sensor position
Inertial Navigation System(INS) – exact sensor measurment
LIDAR TYPES
Based on the physical process(range finders,DIAL,doppler lidar)
Based on scattering process(Mie, Rayleigh, Raman, Fluorescence Lidar)
Based on the platform(Groundbased, Airborne, Spaceborne)
Terrestrial Airborne
What can we measure with LIDAR?
• Clouds
• Aerosol
• Water Vapour
• Minor constituents (eg:ozone,hydro carbons)
• Temperature
BASIC ARCHITECTURE OF LIDAR
Transmitter Receiver
Data Acquisition $Control System
Function of Transmitter
• provide laser pulses
• consist of lasers,wavelength control system,diagnostic equipment
• determines the performance of Lidar system
Function of Receiver
• collect $ detect returned photon signals
• consist of telescopes,filters,photon detectors,discriminators etc
• distinguishes the returned photons
Function of Data Acquisition & Control System
• record returned data and time-of-flight
• provide system control and coordination
• consists of multi-channel scalar,discriminator,computer and software
• enabling various data acquisition modes
COMPONENTS
• Terrestrial Lidar
• Laser-Nd:YAG Laser
• Optical Telescope
• Mirror Shutter
• Photo multiplier tubes
• Detector- spectrometer
WORKING OF LIDAR
• Laser-generates an optical pulse
• Return pulse
• High speed counter
• Calculate Distance :-
* Distance=(Speed of Light * Time of flight) / 2
* Speed of light : 3 x 108 m/s
dist=t2way / 2 * c
• LidarTransmitter, Scanner, and Receiver
• Aircraft Positioning –Differential GPS (with post-processing)
• Aircraft Attitude –Pitch, Roll, Yaw –Inertial Navigation System

Terrestrial Lidar
SHOALS-SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS
• Undersea cable routing
• Wreck detection
• Charting and safety issues
ADVANTAGES
• Higher accuracy
• Minimum human dependence
• Weather or Light independence
• Canopy penetration
• Higher data density
DIS-ADVANTAGES
most lidar data are collected at night, but unlike radar,lidar cannot penetrate clouds, rain, or dense haze and must be flown during fair weather.
