The purpose of this study is the photogrammetric survey of a forested area using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), and the estimation of the digital terrain model (DTM) of the area, based on the photogrammetrically produced digital surface model (DSM). Furthermore, through the classification of the height difference between a DSM and a DTM, a vegetation height model is estimated, and a vegetation type map is produced. Finally, the generated DTM was used in a hydrological analysis study to determine its suitability compared to the usage of the DSM. The selected study area was the forest of Seih-Sou (Thessaloniki). The DTM extraction methodology applies classification and filtering of point clouds, and aims to produce a surface model including only terrain points (DTM). The method yielded a DTM that functioned satisfactorily as a basis for the hydrological analysis. Also, by classifying the DSM–DTM difference, a vegetation height model was generated. For the photogrammetric survey, 495 aerial images were used, taken by a UAV from a height of ∼200 m. A total of 44 ground control points were measured with an accuracy of 5 cm. The accuracy of the aerial triangulation was approximately 13 cm. The produced dense point cloud, counted 146 593 725 points.

Digital Elevation Model Data

Salah satu data penginderaan jauh yang penting adalah DEM (Digital Elevation Model). Data DEM memberikan informasi ketinggian suatu permukaan bumi dimana dikelompokkan menjadi 2 yaitu DSM (Digital Surface Model) yang menyajikan informasi ketinggian permukaan tutupan lahan dan DTM (Digital Terrain Model) yang menyajikan informasi ketinggian tanah. Pemetaan banjir rob secara umum menggunakan data DTM. Tetapi untuk mendapatkan data DTM sangatlah sulit. Salah satu data DEM yang tersedia secara gratis adalah data DEM terkoreksi hasil ekstraksi dari ALOS PALSAR yang memiliki resolusi spasial 12,5 meter, tidak terlalu bagus untuk digunakan sebagai data untuk pemetaan genangan banjir rob mengingat itu hanyalah DSM. Sedangkan menggunakan data titik ketinggian yang di interpolasi tidak terlalu merepresentatifkan kondisi ketinggian medan suatu wilayah kecuali jika jumlah titiknya banyak. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode slope based filtering untuk mengkonversi data DEM dari ALOS PALSAR menjadi DTM.Hasil dari metode ini dilakukan uji statistik berupa korelasi dengan data titik ketinggian dan mempunyai nilai korelasi yang sangat tinggi yaitu sebesar 0,80 dan nilai RMSE sebesar 1,402. Selanjutnya dibuat pemodalan spasial genangan banjir rob dari DTM. Hasil pemodelan spasial genanngan banjir rob kemudin diuji akurasi dengan uji statistik korelasi dan penghitungan RMSE dengan data hasil survey lapangan. Hasil pemodelan memiliki korelasi sebesar 0,78 dengan nilai RMSE tinggi genangan banjir rob sebesar 0,763. Yang berarti bahwa rata-rata selisih nilai ketinggian genangan banjir rob dari peta dan dilapangan adalah sebesar 0,763m. Wilayah genangan banjir rob meliputi Desa Jeruksari, Desa Tegaldowo, Desa Mulyorejo dan Desa Karangjompo.

Abstract The VOLTA project is a RISE Marie-Curie action designed to realize Research & Innovation (R&I) among intersectoral partners to exchange knowledge, methods and workflows in the geospatial field. To accomplish its objectives, the main R&I activities of VOLTA are divided in four interlinked Work Packages with two transversal ones responsible for knowledge transfer & training as well as dissemination of the project results. The research activities and knowledge transfer are performed with a series of secondments between partners. The consortium is composed of 13 partners from academic & research institutions, industrial partners and national mapping agencies. The Romanian National Center of Cartography is part of this research project and in this article the achievements of the secondment at Bruno Kessler Foundation in Trento (Italy) are given. The main goal of the exchange was to generate level of detail - LOD2 building models in an automated manner from photogrammetric point clouds and without any ancillary data. To benchmark existing commercial solutions for the realization of LOD2 building models, we tested Building Reconstruction. This program generates LOD2 models starting from building footprints, digital terrain model (DTM) and digital surface model (DSM). The presented work examined a research and a commercial-based approach to reconstruct LOD2 building models from point clouds. The full paper will report all technical details of the work with insight analyses and comparisons.

In this paper we will present a simplified approach for extracting the ground level – a digital terrain model (DTM) – from the surface provided in a digital surface model (DSM). Most existing algorithms try to find the ground values in a digital surface model. Our approach works the opposite direction by detecting probable above ground areas. The main advantage of our approach is the possibility to use it with incomplete DSMs containing much no data values which can be e.g. occlusions in the calculated DSM. A smoothing or filling of such original derived DSMs will destroy much information which is very useful for deriving a ground surface from the DSM. Since the presented approach needs steep edges to detect potential high objects it will fail on smoothed and filled DSMs. After presenting the algorithm it will be applied to a test area in Salzburg and compared to a terrain model freely available from the Austrian government.

One of the basic goals of the smart city concept is to create a high-quality environment that is long sustainable and economically justifiable. The priority and concrete goal today is to promote and provide sustainable sources of energy (SSE). Croatia is rich with sun energy and as one of the sunniest European countries, it has a huge insufficiently used solar potential at its disposal. The paper describes the procedure of analysing the solar potential of a pilot area Sveti Križ Začretje by means of digital surface model (DSM) and based on the data available in the Meteorological and Hydrological Service of the Republic of Croatia. Although a more detailed analysis would require some additional factors, it is clear that the installation of 19,6m2 of solar panels in each household could cover annual requirements of the household in the analysed area, the locality Sveti Križ Začretje.

End To End

In this work, we introduce an end-to-end workflow for very high-resolution satellite-based mapping, building the basis for important 3D mapping products: (1) digital surface model, (2) digital terrain model, (3) normalized digital surface model and (4) ortho-rectified image mosaic. In particular, we describe all underlying principles for satellite-based 3D mapping and propose methods that extract these products from multi-view stereo satellite imagery. Our workflow is demonstrated for the Pléiades satellite constellation, however, the applied building blocks are more general and thus also applicable for different setups. Besides introducing the overall end-to-end workflow, we need also to tackle single building blocks: optimization of sensor models represented by rational polynomials, epipolar rectification, image matching, spatial point intersection, data fusion, digital terrain model derivation, ortho rectification and ortho mosaicing. For each of these steps, extensions to the state-of-the-art are proposed and discussed in detail. In addition, a novel approach for terrain model generation is introduced. The second aim of the study is a detailed assessment of the resulting output products. Thus, a variety of data sets showing different acquisition scenarios are gathered, allover comprising 24 Pléiades images. First, the accuracies of the 2D and 3D geo-location are analyzed. Second, surface and terrain models are evaluated, including a critical look on the underlying error metrics and discussing the differences of single stereo, tri-stereo and multi-view data sets. Overall, 3D accuracies in the range of 0 . 2 to 0 . 3 m in planimetry and 0 . 2 to 0 . 4 m in height are achieved w.r.t. ground control points. Retrieved surface models show normalized median absolute deviations around 0 . 9 m in comparison to reference LiDAR data. Multi-view stereo outperforms single stereo in terms of accuracy and completeness of the resulting surface models.
