Multiscale analysis of high resolution digital elevation models using the wavelet transform

Michaël Kalbermatten

At the end of the nineties the emergence of high resolution (1 m) digital elevation models (DEMs) settled the context of high precision geomorphological analysis. These new elevation models permitted to reveal structures that remained heretofore undetectab ...

This paper presents a methodology for the precise registering of airborne laser data directly in flight with an accuracy that is sufficient for the majority of derived products, such as digital terrain models. We first present the strategy that integrates ...

A mobile mapping system for road data capture via a single camera

Jan Skaloud, Pierre-Yves Gilliéron, Hervé Gontran

The development of road telematics requires the management of continuously growing road databases. Mobile mapping systems can acquire this information, while offering an unbeatable productivity with the combination of navigation and videogrammetry tools. H ...

Accuracy Estimation for Laser Point Cloud Including Scanning Geometry

Jan Skaloud

Individual points produced by airborne laser scanning (ALS) may have large variation in their accuracy, a fact that is often omitted in the subsequent derivation of digital terrain models. The accuracy of a single point is governed by three main factors: F ...

Scan2Map is an airborne remote-sensing system developed under the lead of the TOPO lab at the EPFL. Typically operated aboard a helicopter, it is dedicated for small mission areas (a few square kilometres at the maximum) and offers a sub-decimetre accuracy ...

Vision-based inertial-aided navigation is gaining ground due to its many potential applications. In previous decades, the integration of vision and inertial sensors was monopolised by the defence industry due to its complexity and unrealistic economic burd ...

Reliability of Direct Georeferencing Phase 1: An Overview of the Current Approaches and Possibilities., Checking and Improving of Digital Terrain Models / Reliability of Direct Georeferencing.

Jan Skaloud

After some initial hesitations, the direct georeferencing (DG) of airborne sensors by GPS/INS is now a widely accepted approach in the airborne mapping industry. Implementing DG not only speeds up the mapping process and thus increases the productivity, bu ...

An eye for landscape - rapid aerial mapping with handheld sensors

Jan Skaloud, Otto Kölbl, Julien Vallet, Grégory Veyssiere

This portable system offers fast deployment with no recalibration and maps both vertical and horizontal features while maintaining optimal flight parameters. The geo-referenced image and 3D point-cloud data can be processed into digital terrain models, dig ...
