This is not meant to be an exhaustive review of all the changes and advancements in lidar for the past 20 years, but rather some observations of a user of lidar technology. Lidar sensors in the early days were either set to first or last returns, then eventually allowed both first and last returns to be captured. Terrestrial lidar evolved into mobile mapping systems where advanced navigation systems allows data to be coll...
