cloud computing is a new discussion in enterprise it. it has already become popular in terms of distributed technology in some companies. it enables managers to setup and run the intended businesses by avoiding excessive spending on computers, software and hiring expert staff, which proves to be cost effective. cloud computing also helps users pay for the it services without spending massive am...

Terrestrial photographic imagery combined with structure-from-motion (SfM) provides a relatively easy-to-implement method for monitoring environmental systems, even in remote and rough terrain. However, the collection of in-situ positioning data identification control points required georeferencing SfM processing is primary roadblock to using difficult-to-access locations; it also bottleneck ti...

With the acceleration in three-dimensional (3D) high-frame-rate sensing technologies, dense point clouds collected from multiple standpoints pose a great challenge for accuracy and efficiency of registration. The combination coarse registration fine has been extensively promoted. Unlike requirement small movements between scan pairs registration, can match scans with arbitrary initial poses. st...

To assess if a given manufactured artifact conform to a template CAD model, the artifact is measured by a coordinate measuring system to obtain a point cloud. The point cloud is compared to the CAD model by fitting the point cloud to the CAD model. One of approaches is based on a method required to determine footpoint parameters. The footpoints are the projection of the points in the point clou...
