Terrain Roughness Parameters from Full-waveform Airborne Lidar Data
As an active remote sensing technique airborne laser scanning (ALS) is able to capture the topography with high precision even for densely forested areas. Due to the high pulse repetition frequency of up to 400 kHz a high sampling rate on the ground can be achieved, which allows the description of the terrain surface in decimeter scale. In this contribution two approaches to characterize terrai...
متن کاملAdaptive Slope Filtering of Airborne LiDAR Data in Urban Areas for Digital Terrain Model (DTM) Generation
A filtering algorithm is proposed that accurately extracts ground data from airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) measurements and generates an estimated digital terrain model (DTM). The proposed algorithm utilizes planar surface features and connectivity with locally lowest points to improve the extraction of ground points (GPs). A slope parameter used in the proposed algorithm is updat...
متن کاملEffective aerodynamic roughness estimated from airborne laser altimeter measurements of surface features
Aerodynamic roughness length 0 ) and displacement height 0 ) are important surface parameters for estimating surface fluxes in numerical models. These parameters are generally determined from wind flow characteristics using logarithmic wind profiles measured at a meteorological tower or by balloon release. It would be an advantage to use measurements of land surface characteristics instead of w...
متن کاملSupervised Classification of Power Lines from Airborne LiDAR Data in Urban Areas
Automatic extraction of power lines using airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data has been one of the most important topics for electric power management. However, this is very challenging over complex urban areas, where power lines are in close proximity to buildings and trees. In this paper, we presented a new, semi-automated and versatile framework that consists of four steps: (i) ...
متن کاملDigital Terrain Model on Vegetated Areas: Joint Use of Airborne Lidar Data and Optical Images
Airborne Lidar system provides the Earth’s topography as 3D point clouds. Many algorithms have been implemented to sort out the automatic classification problem as well as the Digital Terrain Model generation (DTM). This is mainly due to the various aspects of landscapes within a global survey which can include urban, forested or mountainous areas. This paper is focused on the generation of DTM...
