Content of Animations in Workflow Order:: 1 - Import - Raw - Laser - mp4

This document outlines 9 animations that demonstrate the workflow for processing laser scanning and image data. The animations cover topics like importing and classifying point cloud data, generating orthophotos, performing aerial triangulation of images, and applying color corrections. The overall workflow involves importing and calibrating raw data, automated and manual point classification, defining ground control points, triangulating images, correcting colors, and producing orthomosaic outputs.

Content of animations in workflow order:

1_Import_raw_laser.mp4 /TerraScan
• Coordinate settings and the transformations (from WGS84 to local co-ordinate system)
• Import trajectories
• Draw trajectories
• Read-in every (10th) point to see the coverage and find the largest building. If you have several
echoes, use only ‘last of many’ returns. Read-in them to class default. By reading-in filter out other
echoes from many to ‘low vegetation’ class (not seen here)
• Measure point density and estimate block size, 2 GB RAM if 5 million points per block - 4 GB
RAM 10 if million points per block
• Place project blocks
• Cut or split turnarounds from trajectories, trajectory can not passes itself in TerraScan
• Create a project and save it immediately
Import points into project
• Possible geoid adjustment for laser points and trajectories (not seen here)
• Deduce line numbers for laser points

2_Data_calibration.mp4 /TerraMatch + TerraScan


• Classify ground points per flight line + low points and points below surface
• Create a project for matching purposes, select blocks where slopes on different direction or hilly
areas. Quick-orhos would help.
• Measure match
• Find match for heading, roll, pitch and mirror scale corrections. Solve these for whole data set
• Save corrections and report
• Apply corrections for entire project
• Measure match again for match project
• Find match for z correction. Solve this for individual flight lines and use entire project
• Save corrections and report
• Apply corrections if big DZ differences
• Find fluctuations for entire project, apply corrections
• Measure match for entire project
• Cut overlapping points to produce a more uniform data density and point pattern. By quality for
crossing flights first. By offset (reserves points, which are most vertical from their flight line)

3_Automated_point_classification.mp4 /TerraScan + TerraModeler


• Use TerraSlave to continue interactive work in MicroStation and to get maximum RAM and CPU
capacity by processing data in several computers
• Evaluate new macros always by some active block before final macro execution!
• Classify ground points to default class by macro
• Classify final ground by macro
• Classify vegetation by macro
• Classify buildings by macro
• Classify isolated points
• Classify preliminary Model-Key-Points for ‘quick-orthos’, We need them for interactive ground
classification

4_Manual_point_classification.mp4 /TerraScan, TerraModeler and TerraPhoto

• Control and complement classification manually. For this


Create ‘quick-orthos’ to support classification
Display shaded surface
Use section views and reclassify ground where automated classification not perfect
• Output Model-Key-Points by macro
Smoothen ground
Classify final Model-Key-Points
Output results to separate location without saving results

5_Mission_definition_Quick_orthos.mp4 /TerraScan, and TerraPhoto


(this animation is also in 4_Manual_point_classification)

• Define mission
• Read-in Model-key points
• Check image coverage
• Delete excess images
• Create quick-orthos

6_Aerial_triangulation_images.mp4 /TerraPhoto

• Import trajectories for images, do not thin positions (done, if ‘quick orthos’ done)
• Possible geoid adjustment for trajectories (missing)
• Create mission (done, if ‘quick orthos’ done)
• Compute image list (done, if ‘quick orthos’ done)
• If large raw images (> 35 MB), tile images to smaller pieces
• Generate thumbnails for raw images
• Define colour corrections to balance large colour differences. Use Define colour corrections for
viewing and applying corrections
• Search tie points to get best positioning for image list and save list in camera view and define DXY
transformations to shifting images fit to ground control points
• Compare location of ground control points and images in camera view
• Move images by control points
• Compare location of building points and images in camera view.
• Display laser points by intensity and use camera view for define xy-differences
• Transform laser points by defined xy
• Output control report to verify overall elevation difference of ground points TIN to a good number of
control points
• Define Dz transformation
• Lower or lift point’s elevation according to Dz.
• Compare details to known points
• Adjust image positions and save adjusted image list as different name
• Vectorize buildings + bridges if aiming for true-ortho (missing)

7_Image_laser_positioning_by_ground_control.mp4 /TerraScan, TerraModeler,


TerraPhoto, (TerraSurvey)
(This animation is also in 6_Aerial_triangulation_images)
• Compare location of ground control points and images in camera view
• Move images by control points
• Compare location of building points and images in camera view.
• Display laser points by intensity and use camera view for define xy-differences
• Transform laser points by defined xy
• Output control report to verify overall elevation difference of ground points TIN to a good number of
control points
• Define Dz transformation
• Lower or lift point’s elevation according to Dz.
• Compare details to known points
• Adjust image positions and save adjusted image list as different name than initial imagelist.
