Original Note:
The video shows images of an aerial survey plane performing what is known as a bathymetric scan using LiDAR (the green lasers). The purpose of flights like this is to map coastal areas in high resolution. The sound is edited in, these are silent operations typically. https://www.twz.com/42754/scanned-by-a-green-beam-of-light-from-the-sky-in-california-recently-heres-what-did-it
