Title | INFOMAR Seabed Survey LIDAR Chart Boundaries
|
Notes | The INtegrated Mapping FOr the Sustainable Development of Ireland's MArine Resource (INFOMAR) programme is a joint venture between the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) and the Marine Institute (MI). The programme is the successor to the Irish National Seabed Survey (INSS) and concentrates on creating integrated mapping products related to the seabed. Lidar (also written LIDAR or LiDAR) is a remote sensing technology that measures distance by illuminating a target with a laser and analyzing the reflected light. The term lidar comes from combining the words light and radar. LIDAR technology has been employed in the INFOMAR programme to seabed map coastline areas where the technique is more viable than using research vessels in shallow waters. The chart boundaries represent the areas mapped using LIDAR.
