Like its Cousins radar and sonar, lidar (light detection and ranging), works by broadcasting electromagnetic waves towards a target and then building up a picture from the reflection.

与雷达和声纳技术相似，激光雷达(光探测和测距)的工作原理是通过向目标发射电磁波然后根据反射波构建图像。

Currently, the European Space Agency (Esa) has two lidar (light detection and ranging) missions of its own in preparation.

目前，欧洲空间局(ESA)自身有两个激光雷达(光探测和测距)任务正在准备中。

Forest parameters, especially forest height, can be inverted from Light Detection And was processed task, Ranging (LiDAR) dataset, which should promote the applications of LiDAR in forestry.
