A Thin Plate Spline-Based Feature-Preserving Method for Reducing Elevation Points Derived from LiDAR

Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technique is currently one of the most important tools for collecting elevation points with a high density in the context of digital elevation model (DEM) construction. However, the high density data always leads to serious time and memory consumption problems in...
