Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideal for both undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of geography, forestry, ecology, geographic information science, remote sensing, and photogrammetric engineering, LiDAR Remote Sensing and Applications expertly joins LiDAR principles, data processing basics, applications, and hands-on practices in one comprehensive source. The LiDAR data within this book is collected from 27 areas in the United States, Brazil, Canada, Ghana, and Haiti and includes 183 figures created to introduce the concepts, methods, and applications in a clear context. It provides 11 step-by-step projects predominately based on Esri’s ArcGIS software to support seamless integration of LiDAR products and other GIS data. The first six projects are for basic LiDAR data visualization and processing and the other five cover more advanced topics: from mapping gaps in mangrove forests in Everglades National Park, Florida to generating trend surfaces for rock layers in Raplee Ridge, Utah. Features Offers a comprehensive overview of LiDAR technology with numerous applications in geography, forestry and earth science Gives necessary theoretical foundations from all pertinent subject matter areas Uses case studies and best practices to point readers to tools and resources Provides a synthesis of ongoing research in the area of LiDAR remote sensing technology Includes carefully selected illustrations and data from the authors' research projects Before every project in the book, a link is provided for users to download data
Download or read book ITNG 2022 19th International Conference on Information Technology New Generations written by Shahram Latifi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the 19th International Conference on Information Technology - New Generations (ITNG), 2022. ITNG is an annual event focusing on state of the art technologies pertaining to digital information and communications. The applications of advanced information technology to such domains as astronomy, biology, education, geosciences, security, and health care are the among topics of relevance to ITNG. Visionary ideas, theoretical and experimental results, as well as prototypes, designs, and tools that help the information readily flow to the user are of special interest. Machine Learning, Robotics, High Performance Computing, and Innovative Methods of Computing are examples of related topics. The conference features keynote speakers, a best student award, poster award, and service award. . This publication is unique as it captures modern trends in IT with a balance of theoretical and experimental work. Most other work focus either on theoretical or experimental, but not both. Accordingly, we do not know of any competitive literature.

Download or read book StarBriefs 2001 written by and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 805 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation probably looks like one of the craziest things a human being could spend his or her time on. Yet nobody would wonder at someone taking a short walk every day - after twenty five years that person would have covered a surprisingly long distance. This is exactly the story behind this list, which appeared first as a few pages within the directory StarGuides (or whatever name it had at that time) and as a distinct sister publication since 1990. The idea behind this dictionary is to offer astronomers and related space scientists practical assistance in decoding the numerous abbreviations, acronyms, contractions and symbols which they might encounter in all aspects of the vast range of their professional activities, including traveling. Perhaps it is a bit paradoxical, but if scientists quickly grasp the meaning of an acronym solely in their own specific discipline, they will probably encounter more difficulties when dealing with adjacent fields. It is for this purpose that this dictionary might be most often used. Scientists might also refer to this compilation in order to avoid identifying a project by an acronym which already has too many meanings or confused definitions.
Download or read book Design of a Semi automated LiDAR Point Classification Framework written by Krista Amolins and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data from airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems are becoming more commonplace and are being used in applications other than traditional remote sensing and GIS applications, such as for archaeological surveys. However, non-expert LiDAR users face challenges when working with LiDAR data or derived products. Anecdotal evidence suggests that many users may not have much knowledge of how a LiDAR product was derived or the qualities of the original LiDAR point cloud. In addition, suitable processing software may not be accessible due to cost or may require extensive training and familiarity with the tools for users to achieve their desired results. This thesis addresses some of the challenges non-expert LiDAR users may face by developing a semi-automated point classification framework that does not require expert user input to classify individual points within the point cloud. The Canadian Airborne LiDAR Acquisition Guideline, released by Natural Resources Canada in 2014, was used as a guide in the development process. The framework consists of a multi-stage classification process that can be applied using LiDAR point clouds exclusively or using LiDAR data integrated with other types of data. Code developed as part of this thesis to implement the framework is hosted in a repository on Bitbucket. The first stage is a ground point identification process that requires little or no operator input to classify ground points within a LiDAR point cloud. It achieved greater than 95% accuracy in sample tests, as compared to available classified ground data. Subsequent stages add or refine classification of points within the point cloud. If only LiDAR data are used, points are classified as building/structure, low vegetation, medium vegetation, high vegetation, unpaved ground, road or paved surface, or points above paved surface. Points that do not meet the criteria for any of the classes are left unclassified. Additional data can be introduced at any stage to improve processing time; add classes, for example, water; or refine results. Recommendations for future research include making greater use of 3D data structures, making greater use of point level information, and improving methods used to refine classification results.

This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Issue explores the cross-disciplinary approaches, methodologies, and applications of socio-environmental vulnerability assessment that can be incorporated into sustainable management. The volume comprises 20 different points of view, which cover environmental protection and development, urban planning, geography, public policymaking, participation processes, and other cross-disciplinary fields. The articles collected in this volume come from all over the world and present the current state of the world’s environmental and social systems at a local, regional, and national level. New approaches and analytical tools for the assessment of environmental and social systems are studied. The practical implementation of sustainable development as well as progressive environmental and development policymaking are discussed. Finally, the authors deliberate about the perspectives of social–environmental systems in a rapidly changing world.
