The two primary technologies for mapping are photogrammetry and lidar. While lidar mapping is the newer of the two, does it necessarily mean it is better? The complexity of lidar lies in all the ancillary technology required to create a viable output, whereas photogrammetry needs no additional technology remaining the simpler of the two. This […]
