Light detection and ranging (lidar) scanning systems can be used to provide a point cloud with high quality and point density. Gridded digital elevation models (DEMs) interpolated from laser scanning point clouds are widely used due to their convenience, however, DEM uncertainty is rarely provided. This paper proposes an end-to-end workflow to quantify the uncertainty (i.e., standard deviation)…
High resolution and high accuracy distributed detection of fault creep deformation remains challenging given limited observations and associated change detection strategies. A mobile laser scanning-based change detection method that is capable of measuring centimeter-level near-field ( m from fault) deformation is described. The methodology leverages the use of man-made features in the built …
