Digital Search Trees (DST) are one of the most popular data structures storing keys, usually represented by strings. The profile of a digital search tree is a parameter that counts the number of nodes at the same distance from the root. It is a function of the number of nodes and the distance from the root. Several, if not all, tree parameters such as height, size, depth, shortest path, and fil...

The patches of the rice paddies are generally positioned by a traditional surveying method such as Plane Table and Total Station in Korea. This study has been undertaken to check whether TLS (Terrestrial Laser Scanner) could meet the accuracy standard, compare TLS survey data with those one of the new modern survey technologies such as digital aerial photogrammetry and RTK GPS. As a result, it ...

In this research, chromatic confocal microscopy with transverse point beam scanning is constructed for three-dimensional surface measurement without longitudinal mechanical translation. In beam scanning chromatic confocal microscopy, the wavelength-to-depth relation and the lateral field of view should be determined considering the beam scanning angle. With the experimental results from a sampl...

Extracting ground surface from high-density point clouds collected by Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) systems is of vital importance in urban planning and digital city mapping. This article proposes a novel approach for automated extraction of ground surface along urban roads from MLS point clouds. The approach, which was designed to handle both ordered and unordered MLS point clouds, consists of t...
