Modern satellites are also more capable of handling the high power demands of the LiDAR sensors. But thanks to recent technological innovations, as well as the evolving space industry that allows for better, cheaper access to orbit, NUVIEW was able to design a constellation of 20 LiDAR satellites. NASA’s ICESat-2, which launched in 2018 to measure ice-sheet elevation in the Arctic, is one of a small number of satellites that use LiDAR from orbit.Īs a result, only about five percent of Earth’s landmass has been mapped with LiDAR, according to NUVIEW. So far, most other attempts to employ LiDAR when mapping the Earth’s surface use drones or planes. We are using machine learning techniques to combine different information together. These are all different data formats that give the user one particular perspective. The technology is able to map Earth’s typography in great detail, and it does so by sending down a steady stream of laser pulses that make their way through trees and other types of vegetation. Technology like Google Maps, satellite imagery, and other open source maps and sensors tell us about many things at interesting locations on earth. LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, uses pulsed lasers to measure distance by detecting the time it takes for reflected light to return to the receiver. It’s not clear when NUVIEW plans on launching its LiDAR constellation, but the company claims it already has $1.2 billion in contracts with prospective customers for its data.

In this way they make a damage to the Maps that is bigger than the benefit that we can have from an updated image from the satellite.“Our LiDAR satellite constellation will offer a wealth of information that has never before been available at scale, driving innovation and progress throughout numerous industries and revolutionizing the way we understand and interact with our planet,” Clint Graumann, CEO and co-founder of NUVIEW, said in an emailed statement. I have discovered great contributors, but sometimes I have a big delusion, and I see that s ome of us unfortunately is more for points than for helping people, uploading duplicate photos, or stolen photos, violating the rules tat we should follow, and I am always asking to myself: "why do they do this?". When someone, like you, is talking about providing correct information, I like to check the profile in Maps, because I wants to learn from who wants to provide correct information. Google is actually working in several improvement of the Map, and they prioritize what give benefit and is helpful for a bigger amount of people.Įven if I am an extreme lover of Google Earth, I think that there are things that really should be improved first, because there are more ways to inform the people about places, and one of them is what we do as Local Guides, or at least what we should do.
Well an ideal world everything is perfect, free and always updated.
