LIDAR

LIDAR images are produced by a form of optical remote sensing in which properties of scattered light are used to create the image. This form of mapping creates realistic 3D illustrations of cities that can be very useful. In the example above one is able to see a realistic digital representation of Manhattan, NY.http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories/s798.htm
