Abstract :
This paper describes the development of the Fugro LADS Mk 3 Airborne LiDAR Bathymetry (ALB) system and demonstrates how the coastal zone can be surveyed faster and more cost effectively, by collecting high quality data across a wide range of environmental conditions. The applications and the results of the surveys completed by the Fugro LADS Mk 3 are also discussed.
