Title | Validation of Digital Surface Models (DSMs) Retrieved From Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Point Clouds Using Geometrical Information From Shadows |
Creator | Aboutalebi, Mahyar Torres-Rua, Alfonso F. McKee, Mac Kustas, William Nieto, Héctor Coopmans, Calvin |
Description | Theoretically, the appearance of shadows in aerial imagery is not desirable for researchers because it leads to errors in object classification and bias in the calculation of indices. In contrast, shadows contain useful geometrical information about the objects blocking the light. Several studies have focused on estimation of building heights in urban areas using the length of shadows. This type of information can be used to predict the population of a region, water demand, etc., in urban... |
