Concept and Performance Evaluation of a Novel UAV-Borne Topo-Bathymetric LiDAR Sensor

Concept and Performance Evaluation of a Novel UAV-Borne Topo-Bathymetric LiDAR Sensor

We present the sensor concept and first performance and accuracy assessment results of a novel lightweight topo-bathymetric laser scanner designed for integration on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), light aircraft, and helicopters. The instrument is particularly well suited for capturing river bathy...
