Classification of LiDar Data Using Window-Based Techniques

Given LiDAR maps, we focus on identifying anthropologically relevant ditches automatically on the map. Archeologists can identify these features visually at the site, but approaches based on remotely sensed data would be preferable.

description Given LiDAR maps, we focus on identifying anthropologically relevant ditches automatically on the map.

This paper proposes an algorithm that uses window-based technique to read the characteristics of each region from maps, whose ditches are already identified, regressively, and then builds histograms to represent the different characters of each region. A classification model is then built based on the histograms and used to predict future data.
