An Improved Quadrilateral Fitting Algorithm for the Water Column Contribution in Airborne Bathymetric Lidar Waveforms

An Improved Quadrilateral Fitting Algorithm for the Water Column Contribution in Airborne Bathymetric Lidar Waveforms

In this paper, an improved method based on a mixture of Gaussian and quadrilateral functions is presented to process airborne bathymetric LiDAR waveforms. In the presented method, the LiDAR waveform is fitted to a combination of three functions: one Gaussian function for the water surface contributi...
