Gutierrez, Ivan (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Watson, Lisa (author), Shelton, Kim (author)Detailed 3D information on vulnerable archaeological sites can document cultural heritage and contribute to its preservation. The Late Bronze Age Mycenaean cemetery of Aidonia, Greece, is a representative case of a vulnerable site. Tomb looting has occurred sporadically since the 1970s, when the Greek government was made aware of the site....journal article 2024

Kuschnerus, M. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Vos, S.E. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)In the view of climate change, understanding and managing effects on coastal areas and adjacent cities is essential. Permanent Laser Scanning (PLS) is a successful technique to not only observe notably sandy coasts incidentally or once every year, but (nearly) continuously over extended periods of time. The collected point cloud observations...journal article 2023

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

Hulskemper, D. (author), Anders, K. (author), Antolínez, José A. Á. (author), Kuschnerus, M. (author), Höfle, B. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (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 (e.g., the landward movement of a shoreline), knowledge is needed on the occurrences and impact of these activities. Near...journal article 2022

Nurunnabi, A. (author), Teferle, F. N. (author), Li, J. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Parvaz, S. (author)Semantic segmentation of point clouds is indispensable for 3D scene understanding. Point clouds have credibility for capturing geometry of objects including shape, size, and orientation. Deep learning (DL) has been recognized as the most successful approach for image semantic segmentation. Applied to point clouds, performance of the many DL...journal article 2021

Kuschnerus, M. (author), Schröder, D. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author)The advancement of permanently measuring laser scanners has opened up a wide range of new applications, but also led to the need for more advanced approaches on error quantification and correction. Time-dependent and systematic error influences may only become visible in data of quasi-permanent measurements. During a scan experiment in...journal article 2021

Truong-Hong, Linh (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Nguyen, Thu Anh (author)Purpose: Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) point clouds have been widely used in deformation measurement for structures. However, reliability and accuracy of resulting deformation estimation strongly depends on quality of each step of a workflow, which are not fully addressed. This study aims to give insight error of these steps, and results...journal article 2021

Zang, Y. (author), Meng, Fancong (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Truong-Hong, Linh (author), Li, Bijun (author)Mobile laser scanning (MLS) systems are often used to efficiently acquire reference data covering a large-scale scene. The terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) can easily collect high point density data of local scene. Localization of static TLS scans in mobile mapping point clouds can afford detailed geographic information for many specific tasks...journal article 2021

Anders, K.P. (author), Winiwarter, Lukas (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Williams, Jack G. (author), Vos, S.E. (author), Höfle, Bernhard (author)Time series of topographic data are becoming increasingly widespread for monitoring geomorphic activity. Dense 3D time series are now obtained by near-continuous terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) installations, which acquire data at high frequency (e.g. hourly) and over long periods. Such datasets contain valuable information on topographic...journal article 2020

Truong-Hong, Linh (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author)Increasing traffic weights and aggressive environmental conditions may result in unexpected deterioration of a bridge’s components. Particularly, most bridges in Europe and US over half life span are affected by such impact. Structural deficiencies may cause partial or full collapse of bridges resulting in problems for human life, economy,...conference paper 2019

Truong-Hong, Linh (author), Laefer, D. F. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author)When aerial laser scanning (ALS) is deployed with targeted flight path planning, urban scenes can be captured in points clouds with both high vertical and horizontal densities to support a new generation of urban analysis and applications. As an example, this paper proposes a hierarchical method to automatically extract data points describing...journal article 2019

Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Van Der Kleij, S. (author), Kuschnerus, M. (author), Vos, S.E. (author), de Vries, S. (author)Sandy beaches are highly dynamic areas affected by different natural and anthropogenic effects. Large changes, caused by a storm for example, are in general well-understood and easy to measure. Most times, only small changes, at the centimeter scale, are occurring, but these changes accumulate significantly over periods from weeks to months....journal article 2019
