3. LIDAR and the state of A.F.E • Until recently: Large scale bare-earth models could be only created from stereo imagery. • Low resolution and needed a lot of user interaction. • LIDAR: Possible to extract high resolution bare-earth DEM as well as 3D features accurately and quickly. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

4. Squeezing the most out of LIDAR • Bottlenecks during generation of high quality feature databases from LIDAR: • Registration, extraction and attribution – all of which are labor intensive and time consuming • Lack of tools for extraction and attribution • User is expected to have a great deal of knowledge about their data as well as LIDAR technology • Need for a tool that can automatically extract features from the LIDAR data and attribute it accurately and quickly • LIDAR Analyst bridges these gaps! Eliminate production bottlenecks! PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
