1. A method and apparatus in the form of a multi-mode LIDAR sensor system comprising 1) a single laser, 2) a single receiver telescope with its associated focal plane array and read out circuity, 3) a holographic optical element that shapes the outgoing beam, 4) a nonlinear optical element that scans the outgoing beam in elevation, 5) integrated signal processing elements that compute range of detected scene elements and form three dimensional images of the illuminated scenes, 6) integrated image exploitation processing elements that determine the object content and object activities within the observed scenes in real time, and 7) integrated processing elements that inform system users of scene content in order to enable timely mission required actions.
