      Perth Metro LiDAR data

      LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) is an increasingly popular remote sensing technology that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser (typically from an aircraft) to measure 'ranges', thereby being able to accurately calculate distances and elevations in a 3D environment.

      Landgate commissioned a LiDAR capture over the 'built up' areas of the Perth metropolitan area between the summer of 2021 and autumn of 2022. This supplements previous captures undertaken in recent years in the more remote regions - usually in support of state and local government initiatives.

      As the State's custodian of elevation data, Landgate makes its Capture WA funded LiDAR acquisitions available for use by state & local governments and industry.

      Additional information is available on the Landgate website.
