Brief Introduction
The increasing use of laser scanning technology has identified a need to establish professional practices and guidelines covering the proper planning, implementation, data processing and QA/QC of laser/lidar data in various mapping projects. Further adoption of ALS (Airborne Laser Scanning) and TLS (Terrestrial Laser Scanning) technologies by data users and mapping practitioners requires common data exchange formats, sensor calibration routines, uniform data analysis, and accuracy assessments. The ASPRS decided to form our group of interest. Its first meeting was held on November 3, 1999. The ASPRS LC has several initiatives underway in conjunction with sensor manufacturers, data providers and data users to address these issues.
