Terrestrial Laser

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) uses laser-based sensors to create highly accurate 3D models of terrestrial environments, primarily focusing on applications requiring precise spatial data. Current research emphasizes autonomous data acquisition and processing, employing mobile robotic platforms equipped with LiDAR and other sensors, along with advanced algorithms for point cloud registration, filtering, and feature extraction (e.g., tree reconstruction, crop phenotyping). This technology finds significant applications in diverse fields, including precision agriculture, forestry, cultural heritage preservation, and infrastructure monitoring, offering efficient and accurate alternatives to traditional surveying methods.
