LIDAR LIDAR, or Light Detection and Ranging, is a real-time search and mapping technology, frequently used in machine vision systems. Basically the optical equivalent of radar, LIDAR works by sweeping out beams of light and using the reflected beams of scattered light to determine placement of objects in the area.

A new technology currently being trialled by the EU, seeks to substantially improve the LIDAR machine vision system's accuracy. To enable the system to differentiate between moving and stationary targets, and prioritise where to scan.
 LiDAR is a mapping tool, using lasers to create a high-precision map of the lay of the land. Researchers using it, have shown how in a huge area, disparate separate faultlines can trigger massive earthquakes.
