LiDAR Technology for Civil Engineering 

LiDAR Technology for Civil Engineering

Extended Abstract, Intetics Inc. 

4851 Tamiami Trail N, Suite 200, Naples, FL 34103-3098, United States 

www.intetics.com 

Keywords: Light Detection and Ranging, LiDAR, Civil Engineering, Building Information Modeling, BIM, Airborne LiDAR, Terrestrial LiDAR, Mobile LiDAR, UAV (Drone) LiDAR, And Solid-State LiDAR, LiDAR Use Cases, Industry Standards 

LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology, capable of capturing precise, three-dimensional information about physical environments, has become an integral tool for civil engineering professionals. It advances critical tasks in surveying, planning, monitoring, and managing, helping to build and maintain the essential services and infrastructure that make modern life possible.   

The impact spans all civil engineering project stages: design & planning, preservation and retrofitting, risk management, environmental and land use, asset management, etc. The fast collection of detailed spatial information with the power of LiDAR allows construction stakeholders to achieve time-savings, accuracy, efficiency, and innovation. 

Main Application Areas 

You’ll see how LiDAR usage benefits building infrastructure across various stages: risk assessment, accurate modeling, construction monitoring, structural health monitoring, asset management, historical documentation, damage assessment, climate change adaptation, etc.
