What are the MAJOR distortions in air photos?

- Tilt and Tip (pitch, yaw, roll of the aircraft because of turbulence)


- Height displacement (changes in ground elevation)

What are the MINOR distortions in air photos

- Lens Distortions (how the lens focuses light)


- Earth Curvature (higher up = more convex shape of the surface)


- Atmospheric Refraction (refraction of light thru the atmosphere bends light toward camera)


- Film Shrinkage (exposure/scanning can stretch/bend film)

What are some uses of LiDAR

- Finding vertical foreststructure (estimation of tree and stand heights and understory canopy)


- Forest fire management (fuel mapping)


- River surveys (understand depth, flow strength, width of the river)


- Mapping (show the 3D view to plan roads, buildings, bridges and rivers)

What are the competitors of LiDAR
