            sensing traditionally uses 2D imagery and tries to sole
            problems such as material identification and change
            detection using spectral information. With the advent of
            inexpensive active and passive 3D sensors which can be flown
            on inexpensive drones, fast computing and efficient
            algorithms to solve the handling of large amount of data an
            entire new area of remote sensing research is becoming
            possible. For example putting a measured spectrum into its
            3D context allows novel ways of processing the data using
            illumination based rendering and possibly retrieving
            reflectances and bi-directional reflectances. Comparing 3D
            voxalized areas allows quantitative volumetric change
            detection. Entire environments can be digitized in 3D and
            studied using virtual reality software.</p>
