Point clouds @ WSL
Visualized data
The Remote Sensing Research Group develops methods to capture and analyse objects with high-resolution 3D point clouds. Different sensors (LiDAR and optical cameras) and platforms (tripods, UAVs, airplanes) are used. With LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), objects are captured and described in great detail with regard to their surface and 3D structure. In addition, we process point clouds from aerial photographs by means of image correlation. These point clouds allow a very detailed description of the surface of objects, but provide less information about their structure.
With the open-source platform "Potree" point clouds can be visualized via the browser (the webbrowser "Internet Explorer" is not supported).
