?? Mapping the Future with LiDAR Technology! Ever wondered how transportation projects take shape before construction even begins? Our Transportation Surveyors use cutting-edge LiDAR technology to create highly accurate 3D models of roadways and terrain—without even stepping foot in the field! How it Works: ?? LiDAR scanners capture millions of data points to form a detailed point cloud of the landscape. ?? Using specialized software, surveyors transform this data into a digital terrain model that serves as the foundation for transportation planning and design. ?? This advanced method enhances safety, improves efficiency, and minimizes disruptions compared to traditional surveying. Check out these incredible images and video showcasing LiDAR’s power in action! LiDAR is revolutionizing how we map and build our transportation system—one data point at a time!
