Evaluation of the Usability of UAV LiDAR for Analysis of Karst (Doline) Terrain Morphology.

Traditional terrain analysis has relied on Digital Topographic Maps produced by national agencies and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) created using Airborne LiDAR. However, these methods have significant drawbacks, including the difficulty in acquiring data at the desired time and precision, as well as high costs. Recently, advancements and miniaturization in LiDAR technology have enabled its integration with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), allowing for the collection of highly precise terrain data.
