Algorithm Speeds Lidar Assessment of Landslide Risk
Algorithm Speeds Lidar Assessment of Landslide Risk Computer algorithms could turn lidar surveying systems into powerful tools for assessing landslides and keeping people out of their path. Researchers have developed a Contour Connection Method based on lidar data, which can quickly analyze and classify landslide risk in an area of 50 or more square miles.

WHITE PAPER
Andor Technology plc, Corporate Headquarters - Absorption / Transmission / Reflection Spectroscopy Absorption / Transmission / Reflection Spectroscopy
Andor Technology plc, Corporate Headquarters

Ultraviolet Visible Near-Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectroscopy is useful to characterize the absorption, transmission, and reflectivity of a variety of technologically important materials, such as pigments, coatings, windows, and filters. This more qualitative application usually requires recording at least a portion of the spectrum for characterization of the optical or electronic properties of materials.
