  • New Paper and Data: 4D Point Clouds of a Beach-Dune System

    A new data article on “A high-resolution 4D terrestrial laser scan dataset of the Kijkduin beach-dune system, The Netherlands” was just published in Scientific Data. Along with the fully openly available dataset, the article presents insights into the importance of frequent and spatially detailed surface measurements – and what to do with them. Get directly…

  • New paper on “improving change analysis with full temporal information”

    In recently published work, we show how change analysis from near-continuous 3D time series improves by considering full temporal information. How can it be done? Using 4D objects-by-change! The method was applied to an hourly time series of terrestrial laser scans acquired for snow cover monitoring. In the snow-covered scene at the Zugspitze ski resort,…

  • Successful PhD defense of Katharina Anders

    On Tuesday, 16 November 2021, Dr Katharina Anders defended her PhD research with great success. In her dissertation, Katharina developed methods on 4D change analysis to extract natural surface changes from near-continuous LiDAR time series of dynamic landscapes. Congratulations, Katharina, for this excellent research – we are very proud to have you in our team…
