v.lidar.correction.1grass

NAME

v.lidar.correction

DESCRIPTION

v.lidar.correction is the last of three step to filter LIDAR data. It makes a comparison between the LIDAR observations and an interpolated surface in which only terrain points have been used. Once the new reference surface is obtained, a point reclassification is done:
a) Points classified as TERRAIN differing more than a threshold value are interpreted and reclassified as OBJECT.
b) Points classified as OBJECT and closed enough to the interpolated surface are interpreted and reclassified as TERRAIN.
The input should be the output of v.lidar.growing module or the output of this v.lidar.correction itself. That means, this module could be applied more times (although, two are enough) for a better filter solution. The outputs are a vector map with a final point classification as as TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE, TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE, OBJECT SINGLE PULSE or OBJECT DOUBLE PULSE; and an vector map with only the points classified as TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE or TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE.

NOTES

The final result of the whole procedure (v.lidar.edgedetection, v.lidar.growing, v.lidar.correction) will be a point classification in four categories:
TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE
TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE
OBJECT SINGLE PULSE
OBJECT DOUBLE PULSE

EXAMPLES

Basic correction procedure

v.lidar.correction input=growing output=correction out_terrain=only_terrain

Second correction procedure

v.lidar.correction input=correction output=correction_bis out_terrain=only_terrain_bis
