Executive Summary
According to the report titled, 'LiDAR Market By Type, Component, Application and End User: Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020-2027', the global LiDAR market was valued at $700.2 million in 2019, and is projected to reach $2.90 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 20.1% from 2020 to 2027.According to LiDAR market forecast, North America dominated the market, contributing more than 40% share of the overall revenue, followed by Europe. Key impacting factors identified include automated systems in LiDAR, widening applications of LiDAR and rise in demand of LiDAR in 3D imaging. In addition, consumer awareness along with higher technological performance of LiDAR over alternatives technologies plays significant role in the LiDAR market growth.
Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) devices are used for capturing high-resolution 3D or 2D data of geospatial surfaces. LiDAR is an emerging technology that helps to capture high-definition 3D data of geospatial surfaces. Innovations in the laser technology help to bring price corrections in LiDAR products. Simultaneously, changes in demands and preferences of the urban population unveil newer LiDAR applications apart from conventional military applications. The sophistication of 3D imaging technology leads to increased corridor mapping activities by the LiDAR systems.
Factors that supplement the LiDAR market growth include rise in demand for 3D imaging technology across various application areas and increase in adoption of aerial LiDAR systems to explore and detect places and historic details. However, less awareness about the benefits of LiDAR systems and use of expensive components in these systems, such as laser scanner, navigation system, and high-resolution 3D cameras collectively increase the cost of LiDAR systems.
