Advanced Point Cloud Processing

چکیده

The high pulse frequencies of today’s airborne, mobile and terrestrial laser scanners enable the acquisition of point clouds with densities from some 20-50 points/m for airborne scanners to several thousands points/m for mobile and terrestrial scanners. For the (semi-)automated extraction of geo-information from point clouds these high point densities are very beneficial. The large number of points on the surfaces of objects to be extracted describe the surface geometry with a high redundancy. This allows the reliable detection of such surfaces in a point cloud. In this paper various examples are presented on how point cloud segmentations can be used to automatically extract geo-information. The paper focusses on the extraction of man-made objects in the urban environment. The examples include the processing of point clouds acquired by airborne, mobile as well as terrestrial laser scanners. The usage of generic knowledge on the objects to be mapped is shown to play a key role in the automation of the point cloud interpretation.

A novel method for locating the local terrestrial laser scans in a global aerial point cloud

In addition to the heterogeneity of aerial and terrestrial views, the small scale terrestrial point clouds are hardly comparable with large scale and overhead aerial point clouds. A hierarchical method is proposed for automatic locating of terrestrial scans in aerial point cloud. The proposed method begins with detecting the candidate positions for the deployment of the terrestrial laser scanne...
