Over the last two decades airborne terrestrial and bathymetric LiDAR systems have experienced exponential development. However, the design criteria for either terrestrial or bathymetric systems have created a gap where these systems are not operational. This gap is in the interface and overlap of land surface and very shallow water (<; 5 m) bodies such as lakes, lagoons, rivers, intracoastal waterways, and the surf zone. These areas are of high interest for geoscientists and engineers, and mapping this topography at high resolution in a single pass with a single system until now has been unachievable. In this paper we present a new LiDAR system that integrates design characteristics of terrestrial and bathymetric systems which enables the high resolution topographic mapping of land and shallow water bathymetry in a single pass. We will also present early results from test flights of the system under different conditions and outline future work. |
