Visualization of 3D cable between utility poles obtained from laser scanning point clouds: a case study

Abstract We can automate inspection work of infrastructure facilities by analyzing the characteristics of 3D structure information obtained through 3D structure visualization using a point cloud. The safety level of equipment can then be diagnosed quantitatively. In this paper, we investigate the mo...
