  1. Improving the Quality of Terrain Measurement

    … and tire models has raised the requirements for terrain measurement capabilities. Inaccuracies that were once tolerable for measurement of general terrain roughness are no longer acceptable for these new applications. The techniques in this work seek to improve the quality of terrain measurement

  2. Error Estimations in the Design of a Terrain Measurement System

    Terrain surface measurement is an important tool in vehicle design work as well as pavement classification and health monitoring. �Non-deformable terrains are the primary excitation to vehicles traveling over it, and therefore it is important to be able to quantify these terrain surfaces. …

  3. Improved Terrain Measurement System for Estimation of Global Terrain Features, Surface Roughness, and Texture

    … improvements in accuracy and repeatability of terrain measurement systems. Traditional terrain measurement systems are tailored for a measuring a specific scale and resolution and hence application scope. These systems tend to focus on surface roughness alone and reject either fine macrotexture …

  4. Error Mitigation in Roughness Measurements

    … road profile must exist. To measure the roads, terrain profiling systems are commonly used. Modern systems based on laser scanners and inertial navigation systems (INS) are able to measure thousands of data points per seconds over a wide path. However, because of the subsystems in the profiling …

  5. The Development of Measurement and Characterization Techniques of Road Profiles

    … from which appropriate representations of the terrain can be synthesized. Understanding the characteristics of the terrain requires the ability to accurately measure the terrain topology. It is only by increasing the fidelity and resolution of terrain topology data that application of these …
