UAV-borne LiDAR revolutionizing groundwater level mapping

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2023
In hydrogeological research, the systematic and periodic measurement of the piezometric level is fundamental to assess aquifer storage, identify recharge and discharge areas, define flow directions and to infer the balance between inputs and withdrawals.

Automatic LIDAR building segmentation based on DGCNN and euclidean clustering

open access: yesJournal of Big Data, 2020
There has been growing demand for 3D modeling from earth observations, especially for purposes of urban and regional planning and management. The results of 3D observations has slowly become the primary source of data in terms of policy determination and

The Obstacle Detection Method of UAV Based on 2D Lidar [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
With the widespread use of UAVs in daily life, there are many sensors and algorithms used to ensure flight safety. Among these sensors, lidar has been gradually applied to UAVs due to its stability and portability. However, in the actual application, lidar changes its position with the movement of the UAV, resulting in an offset in the detected point ...

LiDAR vs. SfM: Which is better for analysing habitat of the harvest mouse (Micromys minutus)? [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
The harvest mouse, Micromys minutus (Pallas, 1771) is the smallest rodent in Japan and now listed in the Red Data Books of Tokyo, 2 prefectural capitals, and 28 prefectures in Japan due to drastic decline of grasslands.

Improving sub-canopy snow depth mapping with unmanned aerial vehicles: lidar versus structure-from-motion techniques [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Vegetation has a tremendous influence on snow processes and snowpack dynamics, yet remote sensing techniques to resolve the spatial variability of sub-canopy snow depth are not always available and are difficult from space-based platforms.
