Three‐dimensional reconstruction of fluvial surface sedimentology and topography using personal mobile laser scanning

摘要： This investigation compares a personal mobile laser scanning (MLS) survey using a Leica Pegasus Backpack that integrates Velodyne Puck VLP-16 sensors, and a multi-station Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) survey. Independent check points and a cloud-to-cloud comparison indicated that personal MLS had similar vertical errors to static TLS. Analysis of wearable laser scanning point cloud variability enabled the mapping of surface sedimentology. Where terrain is navigable by foot, wearable laser scanning enables rapid acquisition of point cloud data.
