The example of using intensity orthoimages in tls data registration - A case study

Abstract

The paper presents the orientation analysis of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data. In the proposed data processing methodology, point clouds are considered as panoramic images and orthoimages enriched by depth maps. Computer vision (CV) algorithms were used for the orientation; they were applied to test the correctness of the detection of tie points, as well as the accuracy, number and point distribution. For the source data, point clouds acquired from the terrestrial laser scanner Z+F 50063h for the two chambers in the Museum of King John III's Palace in Wilanów were utilized.
