Data-Driven Approach to Benthic Cover Type Classification Using Bathymetric LiDAR Waveform Analysis

A data-driven method for describing the benthic cover type based on full-waveform bathymetric LiDAR data analysis is presented. The waveform of the bathymetric LiDAR return pulse is first modeled as a sum of three functions: a Gaussian pulse representing the surface return, a function modeling the b...
