LiDAR Calibration – Achieving Survey Grade Accuracy with LiDARSnap 4

Interested in generating survey grade data with greater automation? How about with more control, less time, and more accurate results? Phoenix LiDAR Systems is excited to showcase LiDARSnap 4 to accomplish all of this and more! This webinar presents the factors involved in the creation of quality point cloud data from systemic boresight calculations to mission-specific LiDAR calibration including trajectory optimization and adjustment to ground control. Through combining all LiDAR calibration approaches into an automated, user-friendly tool, LiDARSnap 4 saves the user time, greatly reduces the complication of point cloud calibration, and improves the overall accuracy of the end deliverable! See how Phoenix LiDAR Systems has streamlined the path from acquisition to actionable survey grade point cloud data through the ease of LiDARSnap4!

Advanced Imaging Solutions

Phoenix LiDAR Systems are capable of much more than point-clouds! In this webinar we team up with our premier imaging partner, PhaseONE to showcase how two of the world’s leading aerial surveying companies are synergizing the industry to push the limits of what’s possible. Also we’ll go over our other advanced imaging systems including dual-oblique, hyperspectral, thermal, NIR, and more!

UAV LiDAR and Hyperspectral Systems

The high dimensionality of data generated by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)-Lidar makes it difficult to use classical statistical techniques to design accurate predictive models from these data for conducting forest inventories. Machine learning techniques have the potential to solve this problem of modeling forest attributes from remotely sensed data. This work tests four different machine learning approaches – namely Support Vector Regression, Random Forest, Artificial Neural Networks, and Ex-

treme Gradient Boosting – on high-density GatorEye UAV-Lidar point clouds for indirect estimation of individual tree dendrometric metrics (field-derived) such as diameter at breast height, total height, and timber volume.
