Importance of QAQC for LIDAR Datasets

LIDAR datasets are large and require extensive quality control and quality assurance procedures to ensure desired accuracies and product results. Statistics play an important role in evaluating LIDAR data in an efficient manner during such this QA/QC process. Statistics can be calculated for the LIDAR project dataset as a whole, for each file in the…
