Roughness Mapping on Various Vertical Scales Based on Full-Waveform Airborne Laser Scanning Data

Roughness Mapping on Various Vertical Scales Based on Full-Waveform Airborne Laser Scanning Data

Roughness is an important input parameter for modeling of natural hazards such as floods, rock falls and avalanches, where it is basically assumed that flow velocities decrease with increasing roughness. Seeing roughness as a multi-scale level concept (i.e., ranging from fine-scale soil characterist...
