TLS-ARCH terrestrial laser scanner data: Maliau Basin (MLA-01), July 2018
Abstract
This dataset is comprised of raw data from the NERC-funded, full waveform terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) deployed at Plot MLA-01 (Belian) is part of the Global Ecosystem Monitoring (GEM) network and is located in the rainforests of Malaysian Borneo.
TLS data was collected on a 10 m x 10 m grid where at each position the scanner captured data in an upright and tilted position. The scanner was set to an angular step of 0.04 degrees and 0.02 degress for upright and tilted scans respectively. In between each scan position a set of retro-reflective targets were positioned to be used as tie-points between scans. For more information on TLS acquisition refer to Wilkes et al. (2017). Scan data was coregistered using RiSCAN Pro, the 4x4 rotation transformation matrices to trasnform the point cloud data into a common reference coordinate system can be found in the "matrix" directory.
