identification
Tactical mapping
Pilots need to find safe landing zones on land. Clear images help determine the safest locations to land and avoid obstructions like powerlines.
Mission planning
Locating and tracking enemy movement is crucial to mission success. Warfighters can maintain custody of critical targets under foliage and camouflage nets.
Monitoring
Geiger-mode LiDAR’s 3D imaging shows troops exactly what they can and can’t see before deployment. Knowing structure locations and details help you gain the best line-of-sight to minimize vulnerabilities and concerns hidden under foliage.
Object identification
This helps warfighters gain a big-picture perspective while eliminating surprises. Seeing buildings, utilities, terrain and water bodies allows troops to move quickly and safely.

WHAT IS
GEIGER-MODE LIDAR?
WAMI provides users with persistent surveillance over an area of interest and contains more information for analysts to see what’s happening in real time. This helps users understand a surveillance situation and its complexities.
WAMI adds context to signals intelligence by creating a visual picture of the surveillance situation in both real-time and forensic. This allows for detailed analysis of events, networks and patterns of life.
Collecting WAMI enables tracking with high-resolution color and infrared motion imagery to:
> Observe vehicle tracks and traffic
> Study patterns of life
> Identify nodes of activity and anomalous behavior
> Utilize patterns and trends to anticipate behavior
