Li, Chuanrong (author), Zhou, Mei (author), Liu, Menghua (author), Ma, Lian (author), Wang, J. (author)Concealed cars extraction from point clouds data acquired by airborne laser scanning has gained its popularity in recent years. However, due to the occlusion effect, the number of laser points for concealed cars under trees is not enough. Thus, the concealed cars extraction is difficult and unreliable. In this paper, 3D point cloud...journal article 2016
