A system and method for rendering terrain features and distance details on a display is disclosed. This includes a computer-implemented distance measuring apparatus integrated in an aerial stationary platform used for terrain scanning and a computer to control the operation and to display the organized and calculated data. The collected scanned data and the determining of terrain coordinates provides details that can be utilized during the broadcasting of a golf sporting event to highlight aspects of the contest. The rendering and the details can be superimposed on the camera video during the broadcast or be utilized by the event sport broadcasters as additional points that need to be highlighted during a player putting process.

Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for utilizing Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensors to facilitate loading and unloading of assets into receptacles. The LIDAR sensors may be configured to detect the location of various surfaces (e.g., asset surfaces) within a receptacle such that mapping data indicative of the location of the detected surfaces may be generated. This mapping data may facilitate a determination of a total volume of unoccupied space within the receptacle and/or the identification of an unoccupied volume sufficient to accommodate an item having defined dimensions. The mapping data may additionally be indicative of the location of asset identifiers disposed on one or more detected surfaces to facilitate locating a particular asset associated with a provided asset identifier.
