摘要
Currently, many digital elevation models (DEMs) are derived from airborne LiDAR data acquisition flights. The vertical accuracy of both products has typically been evaluated using methods based on randomly sampled control points. However, due to the superficial nature of the DEM, logic suggests that it is more appropriate to use a superficial object as an evaluation and control element, that is, a "control surface" or "control patch". Our approach proposes a method for obtaining each patch from a georeferenced point cloud (PC) measured with a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS). In order to reduce the dilution of precision due to very acute angles of incidence that occur between the terrain and the scanner ' s rays when it is stationed on a conventional tripod, a system has been created that allows the scanner to be placed face down at a height of up to 7 m. Stationing the scanner at that height also has the advantage of reducing shadow areas in the presence of possible obstacles. In our experiment, the final result is an 18 m x 18 m PC patch which, after resampling, can be transformed into a high-density (10,000 points/m(2)) and high-quality (absolute positional uncertainty < 0.05 m) DEM patch, that is, with a regular mesh format. This DEM patch can be used as the ground truth to assess the surface accuracy of DEMs (DEM format) or airborne LiDAR data acquisition flights (PC format).
