A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Airborne water vapour and wind lidar measurements of latent heat fluxes during COPS 2007 [PDF]
During the Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study (COPS) in July 2007 over the Black Forest Mountains in south-western Germany, tropospheric profiles of water vapour and wind were measured with a differential absorption lidar (DIAL ...

Abstract Tree crowns are complex, three‐dimensional structures whose morphology varies among species, individuals and environments. Although light detection and ranging (LiDAR) provides high‐resolution, single‐tree point clouds that advance species discrimination and the assessment of intraspecific variation in situ, crown shape is still commonly ...

A Survey of Methods for Constructing 3D Urban Models From Point Clouds
The survey outlines a general process for constructing 3D models from point clouds and categorizes the methods based on their use of templates, basic surface primitives, hybrid approaches, or linear primitives. Additionally, the survey reviews the datasets and benchmarks that are essential for testing and training the developed methods.

Design and implementation of points position cloud calculation based on software-hardware co-design
Airborne lidar has a wide range of applications in mapping, exploration and so on. Its data processing uses the ranging data of LiDAR and the position and orientation information to obtain high precision surface models.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS OF AIRBORNE LIDAR TECHNOLAGY IN GEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION [PDF]
The technology of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR), also referred to as Airborne Laser Scanning, is widely used for high-resolution topographic data acquisition (even under forest cover) with sub-meter planimetric and vertical accuracy.

TreeON: Reconstructing 3D Tree Point Clouds from Orthophotos and Heightmaps
Abstract We present TreeON, a novel neural‐based framework for reconstructing detailed 3D tree point clouds from sparse top‐down geodata, using only a single orthophoto and its corresponding Digital Surface Model (DSM). Our method introduces a new training supervision strategy that combines both geometric supervision and a differentiable shadow and ...
