As the UAV industry has grown to the extent of generalization in personal-use drones, the application aspect of the technology has also been expanding to various fields. Among those applications, LiDAR - one of the sensors being used in remote sensing technologies - has gone through quite a remarkable improvement. In the past, not only the personal-use drones were rare, but mounting LiDARs on drones was also hardly done due to its massive weight and high prices. Consequently, LiDARs could only be loaded on large aircraft which makes a survey very cost-intensive. However, a recent advancement in LiDAR technology has made the sensor much lighter in both weight and cost at the same time. Nevertheless, loading new LiDARs on top of drones was not yet thoroughly examined. Therefore, the need for the evaluation of such LiDARs for their suitability on mounting on drones is high. This study shows the result of an attempt on evaluating the performance of a cost-effective, compact LiDAR sensor in the market so that whether one is suitable for being attached to drones for possible future works or not, be confirmed.
