LIDAR

The above photo is a LIDAR image of ground zero (World Trade Center) taken on September 27, 2001. This was taken from an altitude of 3,300 feet from NOAA. A LIDAR image is an image using infrared laser light instead of radio waves which is capable of detecting particles and conditions in the atmosphere.
