Lidar is an acronym for light detection and ranging. It is an optical remote sensing technology that can measure the distance to, or other properties of a target by illuminating the target with light, often using pulses from a laser.
Lidar (also written LIDAR, LiDAR or LADAR) is a remote sensing technology that measures distance by illuminating a target with a laser and analyzing the reflected light. Although thought by some to be an acronym of Light Detection And Ranging,[1] the term lidar was actually created as a portmanteau of "light" and "radar".[2][3] Lidar is popularly used as a technology to make high-resolution maps, with applications in geodesy, geomatics, archaeology, geography, geology, geomorphology, seismology, forestry, remote sensing, atmospheric physics,[4] airborne laser swath mapping (ALSM), laser altimetry, and contour mapping.
LiDAR acronym as Light Detection and Ranging is remote sensing technology having several technical and socialite advantages. This technology is basically used to make high resolution digital map to provide the real time data. This data can be processed and used to extract the useful information. A typical LIDAR system consists of three main components, a GPS system to provide position information, an INS unit for attitude determination, and a LASER system to provide range (distance) information between the LASER firing point and the ground point. In addition to range data, modern LIDAR systems can capture intensity images over the mapped area. Therefore, LIDAR is being more extensively used in mapping and GIS applications.
Multispectral remote sensors such as the Landsat Thematic Mapper and SPOT XS produce
images with a few relatively broad wavelength bands. Hyperspectral remote sensors, on the
other hand, collect image data simultaneously in dozens or hundreds of narrow, adjacent
spectral bands. These measurements make it possible to derive a continuous spectrum for each
image cell, as shown in the illustration below. After adjustments for sensor, atmospheric, and
terrain effects are applied, these image spectra can be compared with field or laboratory
reflectance spectra in order to recognize and map surface materials such as particular types of
vegetation or diagnostic minerals associated with ore deposits.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.
