Online Waveform LiDAR Processing

Posted on August 10, 2015 by Chuck Schoeneberger

Joanna Setkowicz has a good instructional post in Online Waveform LiDAR Processing with Terrestrial Scanning.  The  article mentions using target range, amplitude, reflectance and pulse shape deviation to be able to get points that can then be processed into 3D forms after classification.  The article is well worth the read and will give you more insight on what happens between the time the laser pulse hits the object and the final 3D output.
