LiDAR data is remotely sensed high-resolution elevation data collected by an airborne collection platform. Using a combination of laser rangefinding, GPS positioning and inertial measurement technologies; LiDAR instruments are able to make highly detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the earth's terrain, man-made structures and vegetation.

激光雷达（LiDAR）数据是由机载采集平台获取的遥感高分辨率高程数据。该类设备通过整合激光测距、GPS定位与惯性测量技术，可构建出涵盖地球地形、人工构筑物及植被的高精度数字高程模型（Digital Elevation Models，DEMs）。
