SPARSITY-DRIVEN DIGITAL TERRAIN MODEL EXTRACTION

2018    Nar, Fatih; Yilmaz, Erdal; Camps-Valls, Gustau

We here introduce an automatic Digital Terrain Model (DTM) extraction method. The proposed sparsity-driven DTM extractor (SD-DTM) takes a high-resolution Digital Surface Model (DSM) as an input and constructs a high-resolution DTM using the variational framework. To obtain an accurate DTM, an iterative approach is proposed for the minimization of the target variational cost function. Accuracy of the SD-DTM is shown in a real-world DSM data set. We show the efficiency and effectiveness of the approach both visually and quantitatively via residual plots in illustrative terrain types.
