Open Tools for LiDAR Data Preparation and Analysis in Archaeology
Open Open LiDAR Toolbox is a QGIS plug-in for one-step-processing of airborne LiDAR data from point cloud to LiDAR visualisations. The required input is an unclassified point cloud in LAZ/LAS format and the tool returns outputs needed for interpretative mapping of archaeological features. In addition, several other tools are available for multi-step data processing. The tools are optimised for archaeology, but have a broader application for anyone primarily interested in visual inspection of airborne LiDAR, e.g., topographic mapping. List of tools: * 0NE (One-step- processing); * Classify LAS/LAZ; * Create base data; * DFM confidence map; * Hybrid interpolation; * Visualisations (from DFM). Further contributers: Elias Grünbacher, Alexander Watzinger
