AUTO-ADAPTIVE MULTI-LEVEL SEAFLOOR RECOGNITION AND LAND SEA CLASSIFICATION (AMSRLC) IN REEF-ISLAND ZONES USING ICESAT-2 LASER ALTIMETRY [PDF]
The world’s first photon-counting laser altimetry satellite, the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2), which was launched in 2018, has proven to have a certain bathymetric capability, which provides a new means for the surveying of island

3D POINT CLOUD COMPLETION USING TERRAIN-CONTINUOUS CONSTRAINTS AND DISTANCE-WEIGHTED INTERPOLATION FOR LUNAR TOPOGRAPHIC MAPPING [PDF]
Stereo vision has been proven to be an efficient tool for 3D reconstruction in lunar topographic mapping. However, point clouds reconstructed from pairs of stereo images always suffer from occlusions and illumination changes, especially in Lunar ...

Extracting accurate terrain in vegetated areas from ICESat-2 data
The uncertainty of ICESat-2 terrain accuracy, especially in vegetated areas, limits its scientific application, and there is barely any comprehensive modeling evaluation for this uncertainty.
