v.lidar.growing

NAME

v.lidar.growing

DESCRIPTION

v.lidar.growing is the second of three step to filter LIDAR data. It identifies which is the internal area of every object on a LIDAR point surface. The input data is the output result of the v.lidar.correction module. It is based on the hypothesis that inside the object the heights are, in general, higher than on the contour. The output will be a vector map which points are pre-classified as TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE, TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE, OBJECT SINGLE PULSE or OBJECT DOUBLE PULSE. The input of this module should be the output of v.lidar.edgedetection module, and the output of this module will be the input of v.lidar.correction module.

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 region growing procedure
v.lidar.growing input=edge output=growing
