Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) Laser Scanning

Laser scanning point clouds of the TUM Downtown campus were captured from a DJI Matrice 350 RTK UAS equipped with a Zenmuse L2 laser scanner. The point clouds are automatically colourized by photos acquired by the internal camera of the sensor and georeferenced by the integrated RTK GNSS system. The data was collected in nadir mode using automatic flight missions at an altitude of 75 m agl. Additional scans were performed in manually operated flights in oblique view to capture the facades of the inner and outer campus area. For the photographs acquired during the same campaign, see the UAS images and also the reconstructed photogrammetric point clouds under UAS Photogrammetry.

The data are openly available here with a detailed documentation of data acquisition and processing.
