GC, being in that line of work you’ll surely want to keep your eye on our waterfront, since the first two blocks of it are reclaimed from the bay and we may be tearing it up soon to put our new tunnel in.

Thanks for the comment and the props. It makes us want to work through lunch. Oh wait, gonna have to do that anyway…

This is it! I could not believe what I have seen here, a land-based Lidar tool!

So far I was fairly convinced that Lidar surveying gear are most likely being installed on an airplane, and then they fly above a certain area and then gather the points hence calculating surface parameters…

Obviously my knowledge of Lidar was not as advanced as I have believed so far, but nevermind as Lizardtech just helped me out with this excellent posting! Thank you for that!

Heat dilatation, tidal effect on ground conditions are my territory, owing to my civil/environmental background, still a good closing paragraph though!

Keep up the good work LizardTech!

Yes, the shifting of the ground is…er…unsettling. I thought Clinton was being absurd when he wanted clarification on the word “is”, but now I’m starting to think I’m not really sure what “here” means.

Very cool. The only time that I’ve ever seen Lidar scanners is on a TV. There’s a show called Crime 360 that uses one to replicate crime scenes. And now that I know that the ground breathes, I’m a bit creeped out too.
