English abstract:
Compared to laser radar systems based on the conventional discrete echo approach, direct detection laser radar systems with echo signal digitization and subsequent full-waveform analysis like the /RIEGL// /LMS-Q560 provide valuable additional information on the targetīs properties. This additional information can be used in the course of the mandatory processing task of classifying the measurement data into ground returns and non-ground returns. Classification is a prerequisite for generating high-quality digital terrain models (DTMs) based on airborne laser scanning data. We present field data to demonstrate the superiority of full-waveform data over conventional laser data with respect to DTM generation.
