Lidar Analyst

Transform Raw LIDAR into Useful 3D Models

The LIDAR Analyst® software extension is the premier 3D feature extraction solution for airborne LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data, allowing geospatial analysts to unlock the value of LIDAR data by automatically extracting 3D objects such as bare earth, trees, or buildings. The best news, now you can achieve more at a new lower price! Rapidly inventory all the buildings across a city or area of interest by using LIDAR Analyst's advanced algorithms to detect, recognize, and extract complex 3D building shapes. Count the trees in a forest or scattered throughout a neighborhood. Strip away the buildings, trees, and shrubbery to reveal the true ground level for a detailed digital elevation model, especially useful for mountainous terrain. Open results in standard geospatial software like RemoteView 3D Pro or ArcGIS 3D Analyst for three-dimensional viewing, simulation, and analysis.

Key Product Features

• Import and process LIDAR data in a variety of formats (LAS, ASCII text, DEM, Mr. SID compressed LAS, GeoTIF, ArcGRID, and point shape file)

• Convert ASCII and point shape files to LAS format; crop LAS files

• Visualize LIDAR data as Digital Elevation Models (DEM) and 2D raster hillshades

• Classify LAS point clouds based on extractions and user settings

• Extract bare earth terrain with high accuracy

• Extract complex and multi-component 3D building shapes

• Extract individual trees or forest regions

• Edit results to improve 3D shapefile and terrain outcomes

• Reveal portions of the terrain meeting user defined characteristics such as slope

• Automatically attribute feature data such as building height, orientation, etc.

• Export results to KML file format for displaying in Google Earth

• Run batch processing of extraction models on similar LIDAR data sets

• Incorporate LIDAR Analyst models as Geoprocessing Tools in Esri's ModelBuilder

• Use as a standalone extension or in conjunction with Feature Analyst extension
