Abstract:
In this study, we propose a method to calibrate the laser pulse return intensity of a Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) based on Artificial Neural Networks. The laser pulse return intensity has an important rule on rocks types' classification when using Digital Outcrops Models (DOM) and has been the focus of much research by the geological community as it helps the geological interpretation in outcrops. In our experiment, we used a TLS Ilris 3D model with a wavelength of 1,535 nm. Our method has shown good efficiency for the calibration of the laser pulse return intensity, demonstrating a strong applicability for classification studies of rock types on Digital Outcrops Models.
