Grass Sward

Light-weight 2D format hyperspectral imagers operable from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have become common in various remote sensing tasks in recent years. Using these technologies, the area of interest is covered by multiple overlapping hypercubes, in other words multiview hyperspectral photogrammetric imagery, and each object point appears in many, even tens of individual hypercubes. The common practice is to calculate hyperspectral orthomosaics utilizing only the most nadir areas of the images. However, the redundancy of the data gives potential for much more versatile and thorough feature extraction. We investigated various options of extracting spectral features in the grass sward quantity evaluation task. In addition to the various sets of spectral features, we used photogrammetry-based ultra-high density point clouds to extract features describing the canopy 3D structure. Machine learning technique based on the Random Forest algorithm was used to estimate the fresh biomass. Results showed high accuracies for all investigated features sets. The estimation results using multiview data provided approximately 10 % better results than the most nadir orthophotos. The utilization of the photogrammetric 3D features improved estimation accuracy by approximately 40 % compared to approaches where only spectral features were applied. The best estimation RMSE of 239 kg/ha (6.0 %) was obtained with multiview anisotropy corrected data set and the 3D features.

Height Data

Light detection and ranging (Lidar) spatial coordinates, especially height data, and the intensity data of point clouds are often used for strip adjustment in airborne Lidar. However, inconsistency in the intensity data and then intensity gradient data because of the variations in the incidence and reflection angles in the scanning direction and sunlight incident in the same areas of different strips may cause problems in the Lidar strip adjustment process. Instead of the Lidar intensity, a new type of data, termed surface feature strength data derived by using the tensor voting method, were introduced into the strip adjustment process using the partial least squares method in this study. These data are consistent in the same regions of different strips, especially on the roofs of buildings. Our experimental results indicated a significant improvement in the accuracy of strip adjustment results when both height data and surface feature strength data were used.

Abstract. 3D semantic segmentation is the joint task of partitioning a point cloud into semantically consistent 3D regions and assigning them to a semantic class/label. While the traditional approaches for 3D semantic segmentation typically rely only on structural information of the objects (i.e. object geometry and shape), the last years many techniques combining both visual and geometric features have emerged, taking advantage of the progress in SfM/MVS algorithms that reconstruct point clouds from multiple overlapping images. Our work describes a hybrid methodology for 3D semantic segmentation, relying both on 2D and 3D space and aiming at exploring whether image selection is critical as regards the accuracy of 3D semantic segmentation of point clouds. Experimental results are demonstrated on a free online dataset depicting city blocks around Paris. The experimental procedure not only validates that hybrid features (geometric and visual) can achieve a more accurate semantic segmentation, but also demonstrates the importance of the most appropriate view for the 2D feature extraction.
