Using FME to Automate Lidar QA\QC Processes

Manitoba Hydro has developed a number of FME workbenches that allow it to automate a variety of QA\QC checks when receiving lidar data from external sources. These checks are necessary to ensure that lidar data meets specifications before it is accepted for use wihtin Manitoba Hydro. These workbenches allow for a standardized, efficient, and methodical approach to reviewing large amounts of data, and aid in quickly highlighting potential issues with the data.
