3D - I love watching 3D pictures and
discover what is the picture behind the scene. Can you see Dinosaur or tractor
in these 3D pictures?

3D
Scanner -
A 3D
scanner is
a device that analyzes a real-world object or environment to
collect data on its shape and possibly its appearance (i.e.
color). The collected data can then be used to construct
digital, three
dimensional models useful
for a wide variety of applications. These devices are used
extensively by the entertainment industry in the production
of movies and video games. Other common applications of this
technology include industrial design, orthotics and
prosthetics, reverse
engineering and
prototyping, quality
control/inspection and documentation of cultural
artifacts.

LiDAR -
LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging)
is an optical remote sensing technology that measures
properties of scattered light to find range and/or other
information of a distant target. The prevalent method to
determine distance to an object or surface is to use laser pulses.
Like the similar radar technology,
which uses radio waves, which is light that is not in the
visible spectrum, the range to an object is determined by
measuring the time delay between transmission of a pulse and
detection of the reflected signal. LIDAR technology has
application in Geomatics, archaeology, geography, geology, geomorphology, seismology,remote
sensing and atmospheric
physics.[1] Other
terms for LIDAR include ALSM (Airborne
Laser Swath Mapping) and laser
altimetry.
The acronym LADAR (Laser
Detection and Ranging) is often used in military
contexts. The term laser
radar is
also in use but is misleading because it uses laser light
and not the radiowaves that are the basis of conventional
radar.

GHVM -
Geological & Historical Virtual Models, LLC is a new company
which will provide
analysis tools for point clouds and TIN surface models of geological
outcrops and man made structures that have been imaged with terrestrial
LIDAR
