Mobile mapping

Point cloud.

The research group of mobile mapping is a mix of ubiquitous mapping experts in the field of remote sensing, photogrammetry, electrical engineering, automation, computational science, theoretical physics, image interpretation, and laser scanning. Mobile Mapping Research Group is works in the areas of:

  1. Mobile mapping technology (HW/SW), applications, and algorithms.
  2. Range data/laser algorithms and processing.
  3. New sensor technology.
  4. Built environment and precision forestry applications, demos in virtual environments and their links to social media.
