LiDAR, as an active and accurate remote sensing technique, is being positively used in many applications ranging from land use/land cover classification, 3D urban modelling, road inspection, to forest inventory. Likewise, it is used as advanced ranging measurements on machinery to scanning devices applied as terrestrial, mobile or airborne laser scanning (TLS/MLS/ALS), where ALS approaches include newer applications from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, point clouds obtained from these systems have the unique features of true three dimensionalities, large volume, varied point densities, heterogeneous distributions, scene complexity, and data incompleteness. It is still challengeable to fulfill efficient and effective point cloud understanding that includes point cloud registration and fusion, feature extraction, semantic labelling, segmentation, and classification, as well as large-scale point clouds for 3D scene modelling, geospatial mapping, and environmental monitoring applications. We are pleased to announce a Call for Papers on understanding LiDAR point clouds obtained from different platforms.
This Special Issue welcomes contributions that showcase the recent advancements in LiDAR point cloud understanding to support environmental monitoring, intelligent transportation systems, geospatial big data analysis, 3D modelling, and high-performance computing.
Areas of interest include, but not necessarily restricted to:
Multi-station/multi-sensor point cloud registration
Fusion of point clouds with optical/multispectral/hyperspectral imagery
Point cloud sampling, geometric primitive representation, and feature engineering
Semantic labelling, segmentation, classification, rendering of and visualization of large-scale point clouds
3D object detection, extraction, recognition and reconstruction in point clouds
Quality assessment and uncertainty quantification of point clouds
Machine/deep learning for large-scale point cloud understanding
Multispectral/hyperspectral point clouds for semantic interpretation of wetlands, cultivated and vegetated areas
