Airborne Lidar in Archaeology: Overview and a Case Study
2013Airborne laser scanning (ALS) is an optical measurement technique for obtaining high-precision information about the Earth's surface including basic terrain mapping (Digital terrain model, bathymetry, corridor mapping), vegetation cover (forest assessment and inventory), coastal and urban areas.

Conference on Laser and Electrooptical Systems, 1976
The DFVLR-Lidar-System VI is made for airborne use to measure aerosol mass concentration over greater areas than it is possible from ground stations. It consists of a Nd-glass laser as a transmitter and a parabolic mirror as a receiver. Technical data are given in Table I.

Airborne Doppler lidar wind measurements
Conference Digest. 2000 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe (Cat. No.00TH8505), 2000Summary form only given. Study of the atmospheric wind field is fundamental for the understanding and prediction of the weather development. To overcome the spatial limitations of ground based observations, airborne measurements are recognised as excellent tools to study atmospheric processes.

Airborne Lidar Measurements Of Aerosols
SPIE Proceedings, 1988The airborne lidar system of the Aerosol Research Branch, NASA Langley Research Center, has been used since 1978 to study the behavior of the stratospheric aerosol on a global scale. The system, in its current configuration, can operate at a wavelength of either 0.6943 pm (ruby laser) or 0.530 μm (frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser).

LiDAR-guided analysis of airborne hyperspectral data
2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing, 2009This paper describes a new framework to the collection and fusion of multisensor airborne LiDAR and hyperspectral data. We describe a data fusion philosophy that provides a spatially precise positioning of hyperspectral data based on discrete first and last return LiDAR data.

Effects of ocean waves on airborne lidar imaging
Applied Optics, 1996The effects of ocean waves on lidar imaging of submerged objects are investigated. Two significant consequences of wave focusing or defocusing are quantified: (a) intensification of near-surface backscatter in which the mean return is increased relative to that for a flat interface, and (b) spatial-temporal modulations of the backscattered return.

Geometry based airborne LIDAR data compression
2013 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo (ICME), 2013Airborne LIDAR data often consumes hundreds of gigabytes. Existing LIDAR data compression schemes can compress the file to 5%-23% of the original size. Even after compression, the compressed data size is still in the order of gigabyte, which makes it impractical for many applications. This paper proposes a novel geometry based compression scheme.

Airborne lidar for fisheries applications
Optical Engineering, 2001An airborne lidar using commercial, off-the-shelf components was developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for fisheries' surveys. We make several test flights of the system and develop several signal processing techniques to discriminate between the returns from fish and from small particles in the water. We use these techniques

Airborne lidar for environmental measurements
LEOS '95. IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society 1995 Annual Meeting. 8th Annual Meeting. Conference Proceedings, 2002Now being tested is an airborne IR differential absorption lidar (DIAL) system operating in the 3- to 5-/spl mu/m wavelength region. The system employs two Nd:YAG lasers each pumping a KTiOAsO/sub 4/ (KTA) optical parametric oscillator. The system will be used to measure methane column-content concentrations over regional areas.

Airborne LiDAR Data Processing
2016This chapter introduces the main data analysis methods associated with topographic and bathymetric airborne LiDAR systems. Data delivered by these sensors can be of two types: the majority of commercial systems deliver three-dimensional (3D) point clouds (systems referred to as multiecho), whereas a limited number directly provides the whole laser ...
