Abstract: A LIDAR system, preferably including one or more: optical emitters, optical detectors, beam directors, and/or processing modules. A method of LIDAR system operation, preferably including: determining signals, outputting the signals, receiving one or more return signals, and/or analyzing the return signals.

Abstract: A lidar system, preferably including one or more optical emitters, optical detectors, beam directors, and/or processing modules. A method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis, preferably including generating a spatial representation and processing the spatial representation. The method can optionally include sampling lidar data, generating temporal representations, and/or detecting object locations. The lidar system is preferably operable and/or configured to perform the method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis, but can additionally or alternatively have any other suitable functionality and/or be configured in any other suitable manner. The method for environment mapping and/or lidar data analysis is preferably performed using the lidar system, but can additionally or alternatively be performed using any other suitable system.
