Real-time ground filtering algorithm of cloud points acquired using Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS)

3D modeling based on point clouds requires ground-filtering algorithms that separate ground from non-ground objects. This study presents two ground filtering algorithms. The first one is based on normal vectors. It has two variants depending on the procedure to compute the k-nearest neighbors. The s...
