1 GEO 6895: Airborne laser scanning - workflow, applications, value. Christian Hoffmann

2 Agenda Why LiDAR? The value of an end-to-end workflow The Trimble AX-Series Data processing & modelling Information Extraction

3 Why LIDAR? Why the Trimble AX-series?

4 Great measuring equipment Direct measurements Extremely accurate vertical and very accurate horizontal measurements Day and night operations Can be combined with (medium format) camera Penetration through tree canopy LIDAR Camera GNSS/IMU

5 Great measuring equipment Multiple returns

6 Great measuring equipment Full waveform

7 Easy workflow Easier than photogrammetric workflow (=direct georeferencing) Turnkey solution End-to-end solution Flight Planning Flight Mission Data Processing Data Modelling & Analysis Fixed-wing or helicopter

8 Great results, great value Collection of thin, small and complex structures like powerline cables, pylons and insulators Easy volume calculations Very detailed city models Detailed forest analysis Vermessungsamt Mannheim

9 Great results, great value

10 Great results, great value Lohberg/Osterfeld Volumes, Slope Stability LMBV

11 Great results, great value

12 LiDAR Applications Height Above Ground Level (not to scale) Wide-Area Mapping Wide Area Mapping Coast and Disaster Management Mapping Urban Mapping Forestry Mapping General Applications Mining Areas Mapping Trimble AX Systems Applications Detailed Engineering Applications Pipelines Mapping Power Lines Mapping Engineering and Corridor Mapping

28 Core Components Data Fusion

29 ecognition in a nutshell Controlled with Rule Set Segmentation Classification Context Abstraction Raster Vector Point cloud Input Result Raster Vector Point cloud Report

30 The Power of ecognition Step 1: Object generation based on image information Step 2: Classification of objects on point cloud features (a) Elevated Vegetation = multiple-return pulses (b) Vegetation height = max first return min last return Directly combine raster imagery and point cloud information Derive information directly from the point cloud

31 From raw data to value Automatic processing

32 Urban Tree Inventory Goal: Create a single tree inventory in urban area. Method: Delineation of individual trees from laser data Data: Laser data (> 2 point / sqm) Images for tree species classification

33 Urban Tree Inventory Results - per tree Value: From laser Position (x,y) Height Crown diameter From images Tree species Understand urban environment Efficient risk management (storm damage) Monitor changes Initiate corrective actions (cut/plant/cure)

34 Vegetation Mapping for Powerline Monitoring Goal: Monitororing of vegetation growing next to powerlines in order to initiate corrective meassures. Method: Mapping of trees and shrubs and analysis of distance to existing powerlines. Data: Vector map with existing powerlines Laser data for vegetation heights (> 1 point / m2) Vector map with buildings

35 Vegetation Mapping for Powerline Monitoring Results: Vegetation in different height classes (e.g. 2.5 m) Distance of vegetation to powerline in lateral and vertical dimensions Value: Minimalize risk of accidents with vegetation growing into powerlines Maximize efficiency of ground crews by optimizing time and location of activities

36 The LiDAR Value Adding Chain Collect Process Model Analysis Trimble AX- Series: AX-60i AX-60 AX-80 Incl. POS AV Incl. TAC LPMaster POSPac RiAnalyze CaptureONE DTMaster OrthoMaster OrthoVista ecognition Object-based image analysis Highthroughput environment Value

37 Value Proposition End-to-End solution incl. HW and SW components that are aligned Plug and Play systems (comes calibrated) High accuracy Homogenous point spacing Low operating cost Customization Options Tools to efficiently create value-added products including automated information extraction
