• Geo-referencing is done in
one of three ways:
– Inertial Referencing
– Registration
– Using a Self Localization and
Mapping (SLAM) algorithm
• Inertial Referencing
– The location and orientation of the sensor at every
moment is recorded with an INS
– Data from the INS and LiDAR sensor are time-
synchronized to the GPS clock
– Each measurement is mathematically translated into
a single coordinate system.
• Registration
– Targets are placed at known locations in a the
scanned location.
– The location of the targets is used to mathematically
back-out the movement of the LiDAR and translate
the data into a single coordinate system.
• SLAM
– Smart software automatically identifies unique,
stationary objects in a scene (in lieu of targets).
– The algorithm uses the location of the stationary
objects to mathematically back-out the movement of
the LiDAR and translate the data into a single
coordinate system.
