This paper reviews LiDAR ground filtering algorithms used in the process of creating Digital
Elevation Models. We discuss critical issues for the development and application of LiDAR …

This paper reviews the current state of laser scanning from airborne and terrestrial platforms
for geometric reconstruction of object shape and size. The current performance figures of …

Airborne laser scanning (ALS) is a potential tool for recognising and measuring topographic
earthwork features in wooded areas. To explore its potential for archaeological …

Small‐footprint full‐waveform airborne laser scanning (ALS) is a remote sensing technique
capable of map** vegetation in three dimensions with a spatial sampling of about 0.5–2 m …

We present a new algorithm for digital terrain model (DTM) generation from an airborne
laser scanning point cloud, called repetitive interpolation (REIN). It is especially applicable …

Vegetation in river floodplains has important functions for biodiversity, but can also have a
negative influence on flood safety. Floodplain vegetation is becoming increasingly …

This chapter examines the extraction of the terrain surface from the Light Detection and
Ranging (LiDAR) measurements, either the original point cloud or the already preprocessed …

Multi-temporal landslide inventories in widely forested landscapes are scarce and further
studies are required to face the challenges of producing reliable inventories in woodland …

The main aim of the work presented here has been to evaluate which combination of filtering
and interpolation algorithms can offer the best DTM accuracy in conditions involving very …

Elevation models based on remotely sensed data, especially high-resolution Digital Terrain
Models (DTMs) generated using airborne laser scanner (ALS) data, are increasingly being …
