Abstract:Mobile lidar scanning is one of the recent technologies that is used to map street scenes rapidly. Among street objects, utility‐poles are more critical to energy companies to monitor regularly through time. This paper presents a novel approach to detect utility‐poles from mobile lidar data in complex city scenes. After removing ground points, the scene is gridded into blocks based on a shared‐partitioning algorithm. Next, an interwoven column generation algorithm is used to create columns. Finally, each of th… Show more
