description Precise point cloud classification can enhance lidar performance in various applications, such as land cover mapping, forestry management and autonomous driving. The development of multispectral lidar improves classification performance with rich spectral information. However, the employment of spectral information for classification is still underdeveloped. Therefore, we proposed a spectrally improved classification method for multispectral LiDAR. We conducted spectral improvement in two aspects: (1) we improved the eigenentropy-based neighbourhood selection by spectral angle match (SAM) to reform the more reliable neighbour; (2) we utilized both geometric and spectral features and compare the contributions of these features. A three-wavelength multispectral lidar and a complex indoor experimental scene were used for demonstration. The results indicate the effectiveness of our proposed spectrally improved method and the promising potential of spectral information on lidar classification.
