Object-based Analysis of Airborne Laser Scanning Data for Natural Hazard Purposes Using Open Source Components

چکیده
Geoinformation is an important basis for planning strategies, natural hazard modelling, process detection, and risk analysis. Airborne Laser Scanning is an operational working method for area wide data acquisition and provides 3D information in a high spatial resolution. The data contains detailed information to characterise surface properties which is, however, not obvious to extract from the massive cloud of points or elevation raster. Object-based analysis allow to obtain additional information for surface classification. The following paper presents the current status of work for determining surface properties and object classification. The workflow for object-based analysis of Airborne Laser Scanning data is integrated in the Open Source GRASS GIS environment using the implemented image processing and standard GIS functionalities. Two examples show the classification of "raised" objects and the detection of geomorphologic structures in Airborne Laser Scanning elevation data. * Corresponding author

Application of Airborne Laser Technology to 3D Cadastre
SUMMARY Growing demand for an efficient land use above and below the ground is motivating cadastre and land management systems to move from traditional 2D systems toward three-dimensional ones. A major concern in realizing the 3D cadastre vision is the development of efficient methods for the attachment of the third dimension to the existing 2D systems. In this regard airborne laser technology ...
متن کاملOrientation of Airborne Laser Scanning Point Clouds with Multi-View, Multi-Scale Image Blocks
Comprehensive 3D modeling of our environment requires integration of terrestrial and airborne data, which is collected, preferably, using laser scanning and photogrammetric methods. However, integration of these multi-source data requires accurate relative orientations. In this article, two methods for solving relative orientation problems are presented. The first method includes registration b...
متن کاملThe Use of Anisotropic Height Texture Measures for the Segmentation of Airborne Laser Scanner Data
Airborne laser scanning data has proven to be a very suitable technique for the determination of digital surface models and is more and more being used for mapping and GIS data acquisition purposes, including the detection and modeling of man-made objects or vegetation. The aim of the work presented here is to segment raw laser scanner data in an unsupervised classification using anisotropic he...
متن کاملGeneral-Purpose Object Recognition in 3D Volume Data Sets Using Gray-Scale Invariants --- Classification of Airborne Pollen-Grains Recorded with a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope
A technique is described which may be employed to establish a fully automated system for recognition of airborne pollen. As the different pollen taxa have only marginal differences, a full 3D volume data set of the pollen grain was recorded with a confocal laser scanning microscope (LSM) at a voxel size of about (0.2μm). This represents an intrinsic and complete data set. 14 invariant gray-scal...
متن کاملSimulating Sampling Efficiency in Airborne Laser Scanning Based Forest Inventory
A simple simulator was developed to test whether airborne laser scanning can be used as a strip sampling tool for forest inventory purposes. The simulator is based on the existing two stages, grid based laser inventory procedure. A population of trees was created using an existing forest stand structure generator. Each tree was represented by means of its 3D-crown model derived from airborne la...
