The Advanced Course on LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is designed to provide a deep understanding of LiDAR technology, its principles, components, and real-world applications. This course explores how laser-based sensing systems are used for accurate 3D mapping, environmental monitoring, autonomous navigation, and smart infrastructure.

Through a blend of video lectures, reading materials, and interactive quizzes, learners will gain hands-on insight into how LiDAR data is collected, processed, and analyzed to produce actionable geospatial intelligence. The course also introduces recent advances such as drone-based LiDAR systems, data fusion, and AI-driven point cloud processing.

By the end of this course, learners will:

• Understand LiDAR fundamentals and system architecture

• Analyze LiDAR data for mapping and modeling applications

• Apply LiDAR processing techniques using modern software tools

• Evaluate the potential of LiDAR in autonomous and remote-sensing technologies

This course is ideal for engineering students, researchers, GIS professionals, and technology enthusiasts interested in learning the science and applications of LiDAR.
