Enhancing LiDAR Accuracy Using Satellite Imagery for 3D Mapping
In recent years, the field of three-dimensional (3D) mapping has emerged as a central system of technology for urban planning, environmental monitoring, autonomous navigation, and disaster management. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) promises to obtain high-precision 3D mapping, based on capturing topographical characteristics using laser pulses. However, there are a few limitations with LiDAR data. Generally, the effectiveness of LiDAR data for developing reliable 3D mo

Understanding Map Projections in GIS: From Geographic Coordinates to Planar Maps
In the field of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) , maps are considered much more than a graphical representation of the Earth's surface; they provide accurate spatial representation for analysis, planning, and decision. However, the difficulty stems from the fact that while the Earth is spherical, maps are flat and projecting three-dimensional geographic data onto a two-dimensional surface is described as the process of map projection. Map Projections in GIS What are map
