  3. Tennessee Business PlanningLiDAR Process for Acquiring Enhanced Elevation Light Detection and Ranging Before LiDAR: RaDAR Efficient Less Costly Accurate Direct Measurements Preferred Technology for EE Multiple Applications
  4. Tennessee Business PlanningLiDAR Process for Acquiring Enhanced Elevation LiDAR Platforms Mobile Terrestrial Airborne
  5. Tennessee Business PlanningLiDAR Process for Acquiring Enhanced Elevation LiDAR Components Global Positioning System Inertial Measurement Unit Laser Scanner
  6. Tennessee Business PlanningLiDAR Process for Acquiring Enhanced Elevation LiDAR Basics A pulse of light energy is emitted and the precise time is recorded. The reflection of that pulse is detected and the precise time is recorded. Knowing the speed of light, the range can be determined. Knowing the position & attitude of the sensor, the XYZ coordinate of the target can be calculated.

  32. Tennessee Business PlanningQuestions for Facilitated Discussion on Enhanced Elevation (Grady) Is anyone still wondering what we are talking about and why we are here? Can anyone describe a situation in their jurisdiction where they wish they could have had enhanced elevation data (i.e. better then what they had available)? Can anyone describe a situation where they did have enhanced elevation data, and how it positively made a difference?
  33. Tennessee Business PlanningQuestions for Facilitated Discussion on Enhanced Elevation (Cont’d) What does the State of Tennessee need for enhanced elevation data? Why do we need it? Are there any substitutes that are good enough? How many people still rely primarily on USGS contours or digital elevation models from USGS? Are the capabilities to take advantage of enhanced elevation data out there in the counties and local governments? What role should the private sector play?
