Testing of Airborne Laser Altimetry Sensors

2018 5th IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace), 2018
This paper synthesizes the results of the mechanical shock, vibration and temperature tests that have been executed in order to verify the performance characteristics of the device under test (D UT) in environmental conditions representative of those which may be encountered during the operation of the equipment.

A super-resolution laser altimetry concept

SPIE Proceedings, 2011
A super-resolution laser altimetry technique has been proposed to provide improved lidar altimetry from Cloud Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation(CALIPSO) lidar data, and it is applicable to other similar atmospheric profiling lidar with low-pass filters.

The ICESat-2 Laser Altimetry Mission

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2010
Satellite and aircraft observations have revealed that remarkable changes in the Earth's polar ice cover have occurred in the last decade. The impacts of these changes, which include dramatic ice loss from ice sheets and rapid declines in Arctic sea ice, could be quite large in terms of sea level rise and global climate.

The Geoscience Laser Altimetry/Ranging System

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 1987
The Geoscience Laser Altimetry/Ranging System (GLARS) is a planned highly precise laser distance-measuring system to be used for geoscience measurements requiring extremely accurate geodetic observations from a space platform. The system combines the attributes of a pointable laser ranging system making observations to retroreflectors placed on the ...

Spaceborne laser altimetry

SPIE Proceedings, 1997
Space-based laser altimeters are effective in providing topographic measurements critically important to the understanding of the formation and early evolution of planetary bodies. Using laser altimetry data, topographic grids can be produced that provide significant insight into the shape, internal structure and evolution of the subject body.

Lunar laser altimetry in the SELENE project

Advances in Space Research, 1999
Abstract Lunar laser altimeter (LALT) has been developed for the Japanese lunar exploration SELENE (SELenological and ENgineering Explorer) in 2003. Lunar laser altimetry and two other selenodetic missions are put together and called RISE (Researches In SElenodesy) project that has been developed mainly by National Astronomical Observatory of Japan ...

Laser Altimetry for Low-flying Agricultural Aircraft

Transactions of the ASAE, 1994
A laser-based altimetry system was developed to measure the low above-ground-level (AGL) altitudes that agricultural aircraft typically encounter during aerial applications. The laser altimetry system was evaluated on-board an aircraft under various conditions.

Airborne laser altimetry in alluviated landscapes

Archaeological Prospection, 2005
AbstractScanning airborne laser altimetry, usually referred to as LiDAR, generates high spatial resolution, high accuracy elevation data. The technique has found considerable use in the earth sciences, for example for flood modelling and prediction. This paper examines some geoarchaeological applications for LiDAR in alluviated landscapes.
