Levka"Great mysteries of archaeology: An ancient Amazonian world revealed from the sky
From the air, you see it only through the constant jolt, tilt, and shudder of the low-flying Cessna aircraft. The landscape of the Llanos de Moxos, northern Bolivia, appears as a disconnected patchwork of open grassland savannahs, forest islands, and lakes.
It feels random, almost unreadable. Only gradually does the pattern resolve itself: raised causeways or paths fanning out to link the forest islands, and a dense, scattered web of canals threading the terrain. Slowly you realize it's a structured network of intersecting lines, enclosures, and roads—the imprint of past human design.
(. . .)
Archaeological explorations in this part of the world have been completely changed by lidar in the past couple of decades. Lidar maps an area from a plane or drone by bouncing rapid laser pulses off the Earth's surface. Some of these pulses penetrate the forest canopy, reach the ground, and reflect back to the sensor."

TKSST • seethis.tv 🌈🪐✨💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🌲📏 A team called the “#Taiwan tree seekers” used airborne lasers to scan #forests from above, then 372 citizen volunteers helped sort through 57,000 candidates from home.
The winner, an 84 m Taiwania fir named “Heaven Sword,” is taller than a 20-story #building, and over 1,000 years old. It was measured by climbers who hiked two days into Taiwan’s misty #mountains during #LunarNewYear 2023.

Taiwan’s tallest tree found with help of citizen science
Deep in Taiwan’s misty mountains, researchers have confirmed the tallest tree in the country: a thousand-year-old fir tree higher than a 20-story building, which they’ve named “the heaven sword of the Da’an River.” Climbers scaled the tree and dropped a measuring tape from the top to the forest floor during the Lunar New Year holiday […]

JanPVPretty ugly on the landscape, but stunning when seen by shaded lidar. The projections at the periphery are slate waste tips.
Alexandra slate quarry, Moel Tryfan, north Wales.
Brett Edmond CarlockAnyone have open-license coincident LiDAR+Imagery data they can share for usage with testing and development in OpenDroneMap?
Size of the dataset/area need not be large, nor any particulat resolution, bands, subject, etc. It just needs to be able to reconstruct, have geolocation metadata, and be unencumbered so we can use it for automated testsuites and manual testing.
Omni Letters - BrasilPesquisadores do MIT criaram um chip de lidar com antenas integradas que reduzem interferências e ampliam o campo de visão do sensor, potencialmente revolucionando o uso de sistemas de lidar em veículos autônomos e mapeamento aéreo.
