DESCRIPTION

45       v.lidar.growing is the second of three step to filter  LIDAR  data.  It
46       identifies  which is the internal area of every object on a LIDAR point
47       surface. The input data is the output result of the  v.lidar.correction
48       module.  It  is  based  on  the  hypothesis  that inside the object the
49       heights are, in general, higher than on the contour. The output will be
50       a  vector  map which points are pre-classified as TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE,
51       TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE, OBJECT SINGLE PULSE or OBJECT DOUBLE  PULSE.  The
52       input of this module should be the output of v.lidar.edgedetection mod‐
53       ule, and the output of this module will be the input of v.lidar.correc‐
54       tion module.

NOTES

57       The   final  result  of  the  whole  procedure  (v.lidar.edgedetection,
58       v.lidar.growing, v.lidar.correction) will be a point classification  in
59       four categories:
60       TERRAIN SINGLE PULSE
61       TERRAIN DOUBLE PULSE
62       OBJECT SINGLE PULSE
63       OBJECT DOUBLE PULSE
64
