Improved Target Laser Capture Technology for Hexagonal Honeycomb Scanning

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
In laser tracking systems, capturing moving targets is a prerequisite to guaranteeing a tracking system’s performance. Previous studies have confirmed that the capture probability of hexagonal spiral scanning is higher than that for other scanning ...

Extracting More Data from LiDAR in Forested Areas by Analyzing Waveform Shape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) in forested areas is used for constructing Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), estimating biomass carbon and timber volume and estimating foliage distribution as an indicator of tree growth and health. All of these purposes

AIRBORNE LASER SCANNING AND LANDSCAPE ARCHAEOLOGY

open access: yesOpuscula Archaeologica, 2018
Airborne lidar (Light Detection And Ranging), ALS or ALSM (Airborne Laser Scanning, Airborne Laser Swath Mapping) is an active remote sensing tech- nique, which records the surface of the earth using laser scanning. ALS allows very precise three-dimensional mapping of the surface of the earth, producing high-resolution topographic data, even where ...

Assessment of Wooded Area Reduction by Airborne Laser Scanning [PDF]

open access: yesForests, 2015
Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data hold a great deal of promise in monitoring the reduction of single trees and forests with high accuracy. In the literature, the canopy height model (CHM) is the main input used frequently for forest change detection.

The use of terrestrial laser scanning for measurements in shallow-water : correction of the 3D coordinates of the point cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Although acoustic measurements are a wide-spread technique in the field of bathymetry, most systems require a water depth of at least 2 m. Furthermore, mapping shallow-water depths with acoustic techniques is expensive and complicated.

Railway line identification using airborne laser scanning

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum Formatio Circumiectus, 2015
The investigations was to recognize the elements of the railway line on the airborne point clouds and using this type of studies in Engineering Geodesy. The object was elaborate on the part of the railway line in the Bochnia City. Such works contains an overview of LiDAR technology and an airborne laser scanning, the identification of the elements of ...

Riparian vegetation classification from airborne laser scanning data with an emphasis on cottonwood trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The high point density of airborne laser mapping systems enables achieving a detailed description of geographic objects and the terrain. Growing experience indicates, however, that extracting useful information directly from the data can be difficult. In

Extraction of tidal channel networks from airborne scanning laser altimetry and aerial photography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The study of the morphodynamics of tidal channel networks is important because of their role in tidal propagation and the evolution of salt-marshes and tidal flats. Channel dimensions range from tens of metres wide and metres deep near the low water mark
