To address this problem, we propose a robust and effective coarse-to-fine registration method that is conducted in two stages utilizing spatial constraints and Gabor structural features. In the first stage, the LiDAR point cloud data is transformed into an intensity map that is used as the reference image. Then, coarse registration is completed by designing a partition-based Features from Accelerated Segment Test (FAST) operator to extract the uniformly distributed interest points in the aerial images and thereafter performing a local geometric correction based on the collinearity equations using the exterior orientation parameters (EoPs). The coarse registration aims to provide a reliable spatial geometry relationship for the subsequent fine registration and is designed to eliminate rotation and scale changes, as well as making only a few translation differences exist between the images. In the second stage, a novel feature descriptor called multi-Scale and multi-Directional Features of odd Gabor (SDFG) is first built to capture the multi-scale and multi-directional structural properties of the images. Then, the three-dimensional (3D) phase correlation (PC) of the SDFG descriptor is established to detect the control points (CPs) between the aerial and LiDAR intensity image in the frequency domain, where the image matching is accelerated by the 3D Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique. Finally, the obtained CPs not only are employed to refine the EoPs, but also are used to achieve the fine registration of the aerial images and LiDAR data. We conduct experiments to verify the robustness of the proposed registration method using three sets of aerial images and LiDAR data with different scene coverage. Experimental results show that the proposed method is robust to geometric distortions and radiometric changes. Moreover, it achieves the registration accuracy of less than 2 pixels for all cases, which outperforms the current four state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating its superior registration performance.

Prior research describes the location of EMS needs with low accuracy and has not integrated a temporal analysis of the road network, which accounts for varying mobility in a dynamic transportation network. In this study, we formulated a network-based location-allocation model (NLAM) and analyzed the spatial characteristics of emergency medical facilities within the fifth ring road in Beijing by considering time, traffic, and population characteristics. The conclusions are as follows: (1) The high demand area for EMS is concentrated in the areas in middle, north, and east during the daytime (8:00–20:00) and in the middle and north during the nighttime (20:00–8:00). From day to night, the centroid of the potential demand distribution shifts in the Western and Southern areas. (2) The road traffic data is sampled 20 times throughout the week, and variations in the average driving speed affect a higher mean driving speed on the weekend. This primarily impacts the main roads, due to these roads experiencing the greatest fluctuation in speed throughout the week of any roadway in the study area. (3) Finally, the 15-min coverage of emergency medical facilities are sampled 20 times in one week and analyzed. Fortunately, there is 100% coverage at night; however, due to traffic congestion, there were a few blind coverage areas in the daytime. The blind area is prevalent in Shijingshan South Station and the Jingxian Bridge in the South fifth ring.

A random set approach for modeling integrated uncertainties of traffic islands derived from airborne laser scanning points / Liang Zhou in Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, PERS, vol 79 n° 9 (September 2013)

Point data obtained by laser scanning enable the determination of their locations. Planimetric errors, vertical errors, and limited point spacing however affect their spatial data quality (SDQ). In this study, we defined uncertainty as the lack of accuracy and analyzed its importance by modeling each traffic island as a random set. The covering functions of the point data and their intermediate locations were determined by point segmentation, followed by interpolation. In this way, traffic islands were delineated from the background with a transition zone. The study showed that point spacing has the largest contribution to the positonal accuracy of a traffic island. The area of the transition zone has a linear relation with the planimetric errors, whereas the influence of the vertical errors on the accuracy decreases with increasing point spacing. Experiments were conducted to investigate the influences of the parameters in an SDQ analysis. The study demonstrated how different sources of uncertainty can be integrated. Results showed the advantages of using random sets for SDQ modelling. We concluded that modelling of traffic islands by random sets provides meaningful information to integrate uncertainties.
