This 3-hour course is all about using OCAD’s lidar processing wizard to turn raw lidar files into highly detailed base materials for orienteering mapping. Students will get a walk through of the tool and a chance to practice using it. The second half of the class will focus on learning how to interpret the various base material output by the lidar wizard.
