LDA must be greater than LDR and includes the airborne part as you cross the threshold to the touchdown zone. This will assume max braking. Assuming you touchdown at the GS intersection you can now see what is the available braking distance and select the braking technique as appropriate to meet the turnoff or the end of the runway. It might be less than max.
