Methods, devices, systems, and computer program products for estimating object reflectivity in a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system are disclosed. The method, for example, includes receiving LIDAR data for a plurality of LIDAR scan cycles. The method also includes generating a dataset from the LIDAR data by accumulating the recorded return signals over the plurality of scan cycles. A data feature associated with an object is identified in the dataset, and one or more parameters of the data feature are identified. An estimated reflectivity of the object may then be determined based on the one or more parameters.
