Abstract: | In this paper, we address the extraction of objects from 3D point clouds acquired with mobile mapping systems. More specifically, we focus on the detection of tree-like objects, a subsequent segmentation of individual trees and a localization of the respective trees. Thereby, the detection of tree-like objects is achieved via a binary point-wise classification based on geometric features, which categorizes each point of the 3D point cloud into either tree-like objects or non-tree-like objects. The subsequent segmentation and localization of individual trees is carried out by applying a 2D projection and a mean shift segmentation on a downsampled version of that part of the original 3D point cloud which represents all tree-like objects, and it also involves a segment-based shape analysis to only retain plausible tree segments. We demonstrate the performance of our framework on a benchmark dataset which contains 10:13M 3D points and has been acquired with a mobile mapping system in the city of Delft in the Netherlands. |
