Gemba Walks are often done in a layered manner. At the lowest layer, the Department Manager does a daily walk, and an hourly associate presents the data. At these daily walks, it is common for the local maintenance mechanics, engineers, and QC technicians to participate.
LIDAR is similar to the radar commonly used to track everything from airplanes in flight to thunderstorms. But instead of bouncing radio waves off its target, LIDAR uses short pulses of laser light. Some of that light reflects off of tiny particles in the atmosphere and back to a telescope aligned with the laser.
Truong, Riegl USA, Orlando, United States of America. Abstract. Laser Scanning or LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) was introduced to the engineering community roughly. three decades ago which was only one real product: range data. As the LiDAR industry matured, the quality. and capabilities of the technology has advanced. Some of these advancements include the integration of close-. range photogrammetry, calibrated amplitude and reflectance, improved precision as well as full waveform. analysis. These innovations are utilized for a growing array of applications in the geological field.
