Façade structure reconstruction using spaceborne TomoSAR point clouds [PDF]
Very high resolution SAR tomography using multiple data stacks from different viewing angles enables us for the first time to generate 4D point clouds of the illuminated area from space with a point density comparable to LiDAR.

Intercomparison of Water Vapor Data Measured with Lidar during IHOP_2002. Part II: Airborne-to-Airborne Systems [PDF]
The dataset of the International H2O Project (IHOP_2002) gives the first opportunity for direct intercomparisons of airborne water vapor lidar systems and allows very important conclusions to be drawn for future field campaigns.

Model-based inference for biomass estimation in a LiDAR sample survey in Hedmark County, Norway [PDF]
In forest inventories, regression models are often applied to predict quantities such as biomass at the level of sampling units. In this paper, we propose a model-based inference framework for combining sampling and model errors in the variance ...

Design and evaluation of multispectral LiDAR for the recovery of arboreal parameters [PDF]
Multispectral light detection and ranging (LiDAR) has the potential to recover structural and physiological data from arboreal samples and, by extension, from forest canopies when deployed on aerial or space platforms.

Performance evaluation of spaceborne oceanographic lidar for optical properties detection in global ocean [PDF]
Detection of vertical distribution of optical properties in global ocean is of high priority to the study of marine environment and carbon cycle. Lidar has the advantage of measuring profiles of optical properties in the water. In this paper, in order to
