Affine and projective Hjelmslev planes are generalizations of ordinary affine and projective planes where two points (lines) may be joined by (may intersect in) more than one line (point). The elements involved in multiple joinings or intersections are neighbours, and the neighbour relations on points respectively lines are equivalence relations whose quotient spaces define an ordinary affine or projective plane called the canonical image of the Hjelmslev plane. An affine or projective Hjelmslev plane is a topological plane (briefly a TH-plane and specifically a TAH-plane respectively a TPH-plane) if its point and line sets are topological spaces so that the joining of non-neighbouring points, the intersection of non-neighbouring lines and (in the affine case) parallelism are continuous maps, and the neighbour relations are closed.In this paper we continue our investigation of such planes initiated by the author in [38] and [39].

Abstract. The traditional electrical power line inspection method has the disadvantages of high labor intensity, low efficiency and long cycle of re-inspection. Airborne LiDAR can quickly obtain the high-precision three-dimensional spatial information of transmission line, and the data which collected by it can make it possible to accurately detect the dangerous points.It is proposed to use the grid method to divide the data into multiple regions for the elevation histogram statistical method to obtain the power line point cloud at the complex mountainous terrain. In the non-ground point data, part of the vegetation point cloud is separated according to the point cloud dimension feature, and then the power line point and the pole point are distinguished according to the density characteristics of the point cloud so as to realize the point cloud classification of the transmission line corridor. On this basis, the power line safety distance detection is carried out on the power line points and vegetation points extracted by the classification, and the early warning analysis of the dangerous points of the transmission line tree barrier is completed. The experimental results show that the method can classify the acquired power line corridor point cloud and extract the complete power line, which effectively eliminates the hidden dangers and has certain practical significance.

Abstract Scientists and natural resource managers require suitable vegetation survey methods to assess the success of rangeland restoration projects. Visual estimation and point intercept methods are commonly used to evaluate vegetation cover. This study compared the performance of one visual (quadrat-based) and two line point intercept (LPI – canopy and basal) methods to assess biodiversity, cover, and to estimate biomass production on sites invaded by introduced annual grasses across Wyoming, USA. Greater species richness and higher Shannon index values were measured in quadrats, while introduced annual and native perennial graminoid cover values were higher in LPI canopy in general. Overall, these outcomes indicate quadrats as the most suitable survey method when biodiversity monitoring is the primary objective, while suggesting LPI canopy when monitoring vegetation cover is prioritized. Finally, our regression models indicated quadrat-based estimates as the most reliable to predict introduced annual and native perennial graminoid biomass.
