Abstract

This paper discusses the real-time optimal construction of DTM by two measures. One is to improve coordinate transformation of discrete points acquired from lidar, after processing a total number of 10000 data points, the formula calculation for transformation costs 0.810s, while the table look-up method for transformation costs 0.188s, indicating that the latter is superior to the former. The other one is to adjust the density of the point cloud acquired from lidar, the certain amount of the data points are used for 3D construction in proper proportion in order to meet different needs for 3D imaging, and ultimately increase efficiency of DTM construction while saving system resources.
