Method for Kalman Filtering Pose Estimates from Lidar Scans During the Landing Phase
… Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory is developing a Lidar scanner to be used on a notional lander mission to Europa, a moon of Jupiter. The goal of this mission is to land safely on the unexplored rough terrain of the moon and analyze samples to detect the possibility of life in the subsurface …

Using LiDAR to measure subsurface movement of slow-moving landslides and study the interaction between the soil and LiDAR scanning targets
… for two decades. This research focuses on using LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) to measure the slow-moving displacement of both surface and subsurface soil of landslides. Two kinds of computer simulation software, FLAC3D® and PFC3D® were used to simulate the landslide process to compare with …

Real-Time Forward Urban Environment Perception for an Autonomous Ground Vehicle Using Computer Vision and LIDAR
… obstacle locations, using a single camera and LIDAR scanner. A road/non-road binary mask is first segmented. From the road information in the mask, the current traveling lane of the vehicle is detected using a minimum distance transform and tracked between frames. The stop lines and obstacles …

Characterization of fluvial facies distributions and cyclicity using terrestrial lidar: Paleocene Nacimiento Formation, Kutz Canyon, New Mexico
… New Mexico, by employing fully georeferenced lidar intensity data collected from a terrestrial lidar scanner and an outcrop surface model constructed from the lidar data and calibrated digital field photographs. At this location, the lidar intensity data are responsive to lithology and …

Characterizing flow resistance in high gradient mountain streams, Fraser Experimental Forest, Colorado
… a tripod-mounted Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) scanner and laser theodolite. Reach-average velocities were measured at varying discharges with dye tracers and fluorometers. Results indicate that gradient is a dominant control for both total ff and the individual components of ff, which …
