Dense Cloud Auto classification - buffer
« on: July 21, 2017, 01:42:04 AM »
The auto classification does a reasonable job at finding non-ground objects and re-classifying them as such.  However just at the edge of the object the ground classified points start to raise up before the classification changes to non-ground. 
For example:  Lets say there is a car park in the area being modeled.  I set the auto classify filter relatively tight, 50mm and 10 degrees. The filter does a good job of finding a car and changing the classification of most of the car to non-ground points.  Just around the edge however the points will ramp up 50mm before the classification changes.  Once a surface is created this leaves a 50mm platform in the surface of the car park which needs to be manually removed.
If we could add a buffer to the auto classify routene that changed points within a specified horizontal distance of any non-ground point to also be a non ground point the problem could be solved.

eg.  Once classification is complete there is  a second step where any ground classified points within a nominated distance of a non-ground classified point is also changed to non-ground.

Hard to explain so I attached a picture.

But for some applications those points are useful.
I would suggest to classify them in another class so that they still could be use or not.

+100!

This has been a huge problem for me as well around buildings and cars etc. Would really appreciate this feature.
