近年来，光探测和测距（激光雷达）从研究领域发展到自然资源管理中的实际应用。许多政府机构、私营行业和公共/私营利益相关者联盟正在计划或最近进行大规模收购，美国全国性的激光雷达收购可能在2020年之前完成。在土地管理者将激光雷达集成到决策、资源评估或自然资源应用的监测中之前，需要在项目规划、数据处理和用户驱动的产品中采用一致的标准。本文介绍了主要的激光雷达采集参数，并对项目规划、处理和产品标准提出了建议，以更好地为多个学科的自然资源管理人员服务。
Recent years have seen the progression of light detection and ranging (lidar) from the realm of research to operational use in natural resource management. Numerous government agencies, private industries, and public/private stakeholder consortiums are planning or have recently acquired large-scale acquisitions, and a national U.S. lidar acquisition is likely before 2020. Before it is feasible for land managers to integrate lidar into decision making, resource assessment, or monitoring across the gambit of natural resource applications, consistent standards in project planning, data processing, and user-driven products are required. This paper introduces principal lidar acquisition parameters, and makes recommendations for project planning, processing, and product standards to better serve natural resource managers across multiple disciplines.
