- Description
- The LDA (LaserData) file format is associated with laser imaging, detection, and ranging (LiDAR) technologies. It is used to store data captured by laser scanning devices, which include the three-dimensional coordinates of points in space, reflecting the contours and features of physical objects and terrains. LDA files enable the precise representation of environments for applications in surveying, urban planning, and geographical information systems (GIS). This format facilitates the analysis, manipulation, and visualization of high-resolution spatial data.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
