Aerial LIDAR lead the market holding more than 50% market share in 2016
The Aerial LIDAR segment was the largest application segment of the LIDAR market in 2016. Development of automation industry and requirement of improvised surveying technology is the key factor which is anticipated to drive the growth of the LIDAR market. Developed regions like North America are the major consumers of the Aerial LIDAR technology. Moreover, increase in aerial LIDAR applications in various industries, apart from traditional military applications, has increased the demand for aerial LIDAR industry. This method provides accurate and precise mapping of the object and is widely being used for topographic surveys in areas of vegetation. With the latest advancements in LiDAR sensors, the accuracy of aerial LiDAR systems has enhanced.
Laser components generated the highest revenue of $136.6 million in 2016; the highest growth was exhibited by Camera component having the CAGR of 27.1 % during the forecast period
The LIDAR market was segmented as Camera, Laser, Integration navigation system, GPS and others. Among them, the laser component lead the market as a result of its extensive use in the LIDAR systems for emitting the light in the form of a pulsed laser to measure various distances. However, the Camera component will be having the highest growth rate due to a hike in the demand of advanced 3D imaging technology. LiDAR based near-infrared wavelengths are less expensive but they are unable to penetrate denser object such as water. High frequency green lasers penetrate water surface, which are used for mapping ocean bottom.
North America was the highest revenue-generating region, garnering for over 45% of the total LIDAR market share in 2016
In terms of Geography, North America is the leading market. North America is a technologically superior market in the world.
