This paper proposes to summarize researches and new advances in full waveform lidar data. After a description of full waveform lidar systems, we will review different methodologies developed to process the waveforms (modelling, correlation, stacking). Applications on urban and vegetated areas are then presented. The paper ends up with recommendations on future research themes.
