Full-waveform data processing framework:

Raw binary files are processed to extract a maximum


number of peaks in a robust way, despite
contamination by noise, sensor artifacts and low
vegetation. Outlier wave filtering helps to reject low
and high points. Range and intensity uncertainties are
computed using extracted peak parameters. Gridded
products can then be generated with the upcoming
AccuGrid module taking full advantage of the
computed pointwise uncertainty, for an optimal
combination of points and swaths.

Example of attributes exported by WavEx 1.0: range


uncertainty (top), target thickness (middle) and
corrected intensity (bottom). The reconstructed
trajectory points are shown in white above the three
layers. NERC-ARSF data.
