How AI-powered LiDAR technology is rapidly gaining momentum, playing a transformative role in enhancing life within smart cities

LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging or Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing technology that measures distances by emitting laser pulses and calculating the time it takes for them to reflect off a surface and return to the sensor. Compared to other measurement systems, LiDAR technology excels at generating highly precise three-dimensional maps, making it invaluable for urban planning.

The Return of Trams? Why Cities Are Reinvesting in Rail Mobility

They were the great revolution in urban transportation at the turn of the last century. Trams had arrived in cities, which embraced them as a fundamental part of the path toward modernity. They enabled people to travel more efficiently at a time when cities were expanding, and newly developed neighborhoods were becoming increasingly distant from downtown areas. They did so in a simple and accessible way, becoming a cornerstone of emerging public transportation policies. However, the second half of the twentieth century largely marked the decline of the streetcar. Today, in the twenty first century, it is experiencing a revival as cities search for more sustainable transportation solutions.
