The estimation of depth in optically shallow waters using satellite imagery can be efficient and cost-effective. Active sensors measure the distance traveled by an emitted laser pulse propagating through water with high precision accuracy if bottom peak intensity waveform is greater than noise level. However, passive optical imaging involves measuring radiance after sunlight undergoes downward attenuation on way to sea floor, reflected light then attenuated while moving back upward surface....
The accuracy assessment of airborne lidar point cloud typically estimates vertical by computing RMSEz (root mean square error the z coordinate) from ground check points (GCPs). Due to low density cloud, there is often not enough accurate semantic context find an conjugate point. To advance in full three-dimensional (3D) context, geometric features, such as three-plane intersection or two-line point, are used. Although still low, features mathematically modeled many points. Thus, provide a...
The Leica Geosystems CountryMapper hybrid system has the potential to collect data that satisfy U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Geospatial Program (NGP) and 3D Elevation (3DEP) Department of Agriculture (USDA) Imagery (NAIP) requirements in a single collection. This research will help 3DEP determine if this sensor meet current future topographic lidar collection requirements. We performed an accuracy analysis assessment on point cloud produced from CountryMapper. boresighting...
The traditional practice to assess accuracy in lidar data involves calculating RMSEz (root mean square error of the vertical component). Accuracy assessment point clouds full 3D (three dimension) is not routinely performed. main challenge assessing how identify a conjugate ground-surveyed checkpoint cloud with smallest possible uncertainty value. Relatively coarse point-spacing airborne makes it challenging determine accurately. As result, substantial unwanted added inherent positional data....
