Abstract
A method of determining the steering angle of a landing gear assembly of an aircraft is disclosed including scanning the landing gear assembly with a lidar system to generate a set of three-dimensional position data points, each position data point including a set of three orthogonal position values. A two-dimensional image from the set of three-dimensional position data points, by converting a position value of each of the three-dimensional position data points to an image property value of a set of image property values. A boundary of an area of the two-dimensional image of which each position data point has the same image property value is identified, where the area corresponds to a component of the landing gear assembly. The steering angle of the landing gear assembly is then determined from the shape and/or orientation of the identified boundary.
