Verification of Line Ratings Using LiDAR Technology

This report discusses results of field and outdoor laboratory tests in 2011 and 2012 to evaluate two technologies to measure conductor temperatures during LiDAR field surveys of transmission lines. (LiDAR measures distances by illuminating targets with laser light.) Accurate temperature measurement is vital for developing accurate models of transmission lines to enable maximum power flow.
