With the gradual improvement of China’s railway net, the opening of international railways as well as the continuous growth of railway operating mileage, the workload of remeasuring railways is increasing. The traditional methods of remeasuring railways can not meet current high-speed and high-density operating conditions anymore in terms of safety, efficiency and quality, so a safer and more efficient measurement method is urgently needed.This thesis integrated various sensors on a self-mobile instrument, such as 3D laser scanner, digital image sensor and GNSS_IMU, designing a set of intelligent and integrated self-mobile scanning measurement system. This thesis proposed region growing segmentation based on the reflection intensity of point cloud. Through the secondary development of CAD, the menu for automatic processing of self-mobile scanning measurement system is designed to realize rail automatic segmentation, extraction of rail top points, fitting of plane parameters of railway line, calculation of curve elements and mileage management.The results show that self-mobile scanning measurement system overcomes the shortcomings of traditional railway measurement to some extent, and realizes intelligent measurement of railways.

A demand for division of focal plane (DoFP) polarization image sensors grows rapidly as nanofabrication technologies become mature. The DoFP sensor can output real time data of polarization information. In this paper, a novel visualization method for angle of polarization (AoP) is proposed for DoFP polarization image sensors. The data characteristics of AoP are analyzed, and strategies for a visualization method are proposed which conforms to the characteristics of AoP data. According to these strategies, we propose a visualization method for AoP data based on three dimensional HSI color space. This method uses intensity and saturation to characterize the magnitude of the angle between the polarization direction and the horizontal direction wherein the hue indicates the deflection direction. It is shown by the numerical simulation that the noise in the AoP image can be suppressed by our visualization method. In addition, the real-world experiment results are consistent with the numerical simulation and verify that the AoP image obtained by our method can suppress the influence of characterization noise, and the image is simple and intuitive, which is advantageous to human vision. The proposed method can be directly used for the commercialized DoFP polarization image sensor to display real-time AoP data.
