Improvements in LiDAR technology will assist NASA scientists and explorers in remote sensing and measurement, surveying, 3D image scanning, hazard detection and avoidance, and navigation.

Like sonar that uses light instead of sound, LiDAR technology is increasingly helping NASA scientists and explorers with remote sensing and measurement, surveying, 3D image scanning, hazard detection and avoidance, and navigation.

The cutting-edge innovation of NASA researchers aims to improve LiDAR into a smaller, lighter, and more versatile exploration tool.
There are many flavors of LiDAR now, "said Cheryl Gramlin, Technical Assistant Director of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. This is such an important technology because it provides precision and versatility.

Light detection and ranging are remote sensing technologies related to sonar and radar. LiDAR uses light pulses to accurately measure the distance and attributes of objects by measuring the time it takes for light to reflect back to the LiDAR sensor.

Goddard's innovators are seeking to expand the practicality of LiDAR applications in communication and navigation, planetary exploration, and space operations.
