Heir in Old Testament Law: The heirs of property in the Old Testament were normally the sons and, chief among these, the firstborn. (1) Deuteronomy 21:15-17 provides that the firstborn shall inherit a double portion, whence it would appear that all the other sons shared equally.
LIDAR data supports activities such as inundation and storm surge modeling, hydrodynamic modeling, shoreline mapping, emergency response, hydrographic surveying, and coastal vulnerability analysis. LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing method that uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure ranges (variable distances) to the Earth. These light pulsesâcombined with other data recorded by the airborne systemâ generate precise, three-dimensional information about the shape of the Earth and its surface characteristics.
On a functional level, LiDAR is typically defined as the integration of three technologies into a single system capable of acquiring data to produce accurate digital elevation models (DEMs). These technologies are lasers, the Global Positioning System (GPS), and inertial navigation systems (INS).his seminar paper on LiDAR mapping provides an introduction to a maturing technology used to acquire land based Digital elevation Models (DEM), and an existing mature technology used to acquire marine (undersea) DEMs. This seminar also goes through the use of LIDAR in space programs.
