Mobile LiDAR for ADA Transition Plan (Room 274)

This presentation will include using the cutting edge technology of mobile LiDAR and TopoDOT for ADA transition plans. It will begin with a brief intro on ADA transition plans, the requirements, and the large amount of data needed to do it right. We will walk participants through methods for collecting data and for analyzing ADA requirements on desired elements. The various types of reports will be discussed, as well as how cities use them most efficiently - including a case study showing how the city of Pekin, IL used the technology to scan and improve the city's entire sidewalk system. The goal is for participants to better understand the technology's capability and see applications in their own cities.
