title: Object-based building detection based on airborne laser scanning data within GRASS GIS environment creator: Rutzinger, Martin creator: Höfle, Bernhard creator: Geist, Thomas creator: Stötter, Johann subject: ddc-550 subject: 550 Earth sciences description: The paper gives insight into the workflow of a building detection algorithm analysing airborne laser scanning data based on open source software. The procedure is set up in the GRASS GIS environment. Buildings are exclusively extracted from airborne laser scanning data and its derivatives without using any additional data source (e.g. high resolution images). This shows the potential but also the limitations of this kind of data. The implemented object-based approach uses remote sensing and GIS methods. Buildings are landscape objects with a well defined border. The object-based approach works on sharp outlines of objects which is an advantage in the case of building detection. publisher: UDMS date: 2006 type: Book Section type: info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/36902/1/rutzinger_udms_07-04_2006.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00036902 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-369028 identifier: Rutzinger, Martin ; Höfle, Bernhard ; Geist, Thomas ; Stötter, Johann (2006) Object-based building detection based on airborne laser scanning data within GRASS GIS environment.
