WHY FELDA NEED LiDAR?• As a Planning Tool for the Initiative of creating

FELDA as an Economic Powerhouse

• Solid Land bank Database of 2mil acres

• To manage a better replanting blueprint

• To solve issues regarding Land Title

• To Prevent Dispute between FELDA and the owner of the land.

Land Dispute between FELDA and the Owner

• After Settlers become the land owner, the dispute between FELDA and the settles regarding the planted area and tree stand has become a big issue.

• FELDA has to equipped more advance method in managing the plantation and administer the settlers.

OUR CHALLENGES IN PLANTATION

• There is no exact planning or Blue print on how our replanting need to look like.

• Especially in the area require terracing and agriculture road, which both works require a lot of works and time.

• After terracing, there is also problem in determination of replanting points.

• Traditional method requires more time and works. An alternative method is needed to reduce amount of works and time.

• There are several important earthworks often conducted to develop a good oil palm replanting area.

• The works are:• Terracing,• Agriculture road design,• Trench and drainage design,• Trees to be planted.

• These works fill 60% of the total replanting cost.

• These works also require huge human resource and time.

• Remote Sensing and GIS provide alternative to reduce the cost and also efficient.

Solution

• In 2012, FELDA oil palm plantation for the 1st time was mappedusing LiDAR and aerial photography, to provide plantationmanagers with new insight to help uncover the spatial details ofthe plantations that are part of the major economic contributorsfor Malaysian's economy.

• The 1st in Malaysia and the World.
