Hulskemper, Daan (author)The Earth's landscapes are shaped by processes eroding, transporting, and depositing material over various timespans and spatial scales. To understand these surface activities and mitigate potential hazards they inflict, knowledge is needed of their occurrences and properties. Near-continuous terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) enables the...master thesis 2023

Meinderts, Jens (author)The Dutch highway network contains more than 3.000 kilometers of roads. Along these roads are thousands of overhead objects such as viaducts and traffic sign gantries. It is essential to have recent and accurate data on the clearances under these objects. This data is important for maintenance and routing oversized transports. Obtaining...master thesis 2023

Seeber, Franziska (author), Sarnaghi, Ani Khaloian (author), Rais, Andreas (author), van de Kuilen, J.W.G. (author)Mechanical properties of wood such as stiffness and strength vary locally especially due to heterogeneities and anisotropy. Analytical models and numerical simulations of wooden boards are able to represent varying material orientation e.g. with local fiber directions from laser scanning as input for the prediction of strength. Current Finite...journal article 2023

Wang, Xufei (author), Yang, Z. (author), Cheng, Xiaojun (author), Stoter, J.E. (author), Xu, Wenbing (author), Wu, Zhenlun (author), Nan, L. (author)Registering point clouds of forest environments is an essential prerequisite for LiDAR applications in precision forestry. State-of-the-art methods for forest point cloud registration require the extraction of individual tree attributes, and they have an efficiency bottleneck when dealing with point clouds of real-world forests with dense...journal article 2023

Frantzen, Paco (author)Global climate change affects mountain regions such as the European Alps. Consequently, glacier extents decrease, and proglacial areas, the areas that recently lost their ice cover, increase in size. These proglacial areas are subject to a high frequency and magnitude of geomorphological activity and act as a sediment source for downstream...master thesis 2022

Nijensteen, Ilse (author)The Catterline Bay, located in North East Scotland, is prone to erosion processes. Using Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) two point clouds were obtained in 2019 and 2022 from this area of ca. 0.2 km<sup>2</sup>. Here, a methodology was proposed and tested to assess how erosion processes can be monitored from high resolution point clouds in small...master thesis 2022

Boomaars, Kay (author)Sea level rise causes more difficulties for coastal maintenance. Although hard structures were built in the past to prevent for flooding, nature based solutions are preferred more recently. For the application of nature based solutions, a better understanding of the coastal processes is desired. Dry sand is transported towards the dunes by...master thesis 2022

Wrzosek, Filip (author)A series of critical transmission lattice towers failures due to severe ice and wind loads forced German utility companies to reassess the structural stability of their power grid infrastructure. During the structural reassessment process, a problem related to an outdated or even missing documentation of the in-use infrastructure occurred. This...master thesis 2022

Liu, Zhenyu (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Balado Frías, J. (author), Swart, Arjen (author), Beers, Bart (author)Vehicle-related ground occlusion is a common problem in MLS data. This study aims to design a detection and reconstruction method of static vehicle-related ground occlusion for MLS data. Ground extraction and vehicle segmentation are performed on the input point cloud data in advance. Then an α-shape boundary based on the prior vehicle...journal article 2022

Kuschnerus, M. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Lodder, Q.J. (author), Brand, E. (author), Vos, S.E. (author)Coastal areas world wide are highly dynamic areas, subject to continuous deformation processes. Both natural and anthropogenic processes constantly cause changes at various spatial scales. Sandy beaches in the Netherlands fall under a regulation, according to which moving sand is permitted, if the volume change remains below a certain...journal article 2022

Kalloe, S.A. (author), Hofland, B. (author), Antolínez, José A. Á. (author), van Wesenbeeck, B (author)The last years, capacity of vegetation to reduce wave impact is receiving considerable attention. To predict wave attenuation processes within vegetation fields reliable estimates of vegetation parameters are needed. This proves to be difficult for woody vegetation as it consists of complex branch structures, characterized by varying branch...journal article 2022

Bai, Qian (author)Roads in modern cities facilitate different types of users, including car drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. These different users often have a designated section of the road to operate on. Road management, e.g., by municipalities, needs to take this sectioning into account, preferably in an efficient way.

Li, Ze (author)Subsidence can be observed at various locations in the Netherlands. While it can be due to both shallow and deep subsurface processes, the shallow subsidence is mainly a result from compaction, oxidation and/or groundwater drainage. Moreover, for grasslands on organic soils, in particular pastures on drained peat soils, the vertical position of...master thesis 2021
