The aim of the The First International Conference on Lidar Technology and Remote Sensing Applications (Lidar 2009), which will be held in China from 5 to 8 January 2009, is to provide a platform for academics and engineers in Lidar technology and remote sensing application areas to meet, exchange ideas, and establish professional networks. It is a forum to focus on specific disciplinary research, as well as on multi-disciplinary studies. The uniqueness of Lidar and remote sensing is that it crosses narrowly defined subject areas and gathers researchers from not only technical areas, but also from areas which use the technology.
During the past few years, Lidar technology has migrated from laboratory to a highly cost effective practical mapping tool with wide raging of applications, such as measuring uplift in geology, monitoring glaciers and coastal change, measuring the speed of atmospheric winds, acquiring wind speed & turbulence in renewable energy sector, estimating phytoplankton fluorescence and generally biomass in the surface layers of the ocean, measuring vehicle speed and target identification.
