LIDAR

http://www.lidarbasemaps.org/

LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a form of remote sensing that makes use of lasers. It fires a laser at a target then measures the refracted returning light to produce information such as distance from the target that the laser impacted. Below is a software's translation of information achieved from a surface using LIDAR mapping.
