An Easy-to-Use Airborne LiDAR Data Filtering Method Based on Cloth Simulation

Separating point clouds into ground and non-ground measurements is an essential step to generate digital terrain models (DTMs) from airborne LiDAR (light detection and ranging) data. However, most filtering algorithms need to carefully set up a number of complicated parameters to achieve high accura...
