Yes,sir I think ultimately we are developing for the end user to benefit from the arches project.So yes,we should develop a project that has 3d views and models in it that will make the arches project even more exciting for the end user.
-->This can be used to make the project have a geospatial reference (Google Earth Api <http://goo.gl/nqGQOJ>). -->I skimmed through this page (Lidar <http://goo.gl/PAAJWv>) and i glanced through this page(Wikipedia) <http://goo.gl/nqGQOJ>and i could understand the gist of lidar.:) I will also want some references to know more about how can we implement this project really (I want to test lidar on my ubuntu to see how it works and more :)) ... So if you have some references please forward it to me for me to have better understanding of what i should do :) Thanks :) On Friday, March 7, 2014 7:48:31 PM UTC+5:30, Edmund Lee wrote: > > Hi Utsav, > > > > Glad to hear you like Stonehenge!
