|---|---|---|
This paper presents investigations on the combination effect of landcover types, ground filtering approach and interpolation methods on Digital Terrain Model (DTM) generated from airborne LiDAR over vegetated area in tropical environment. The study area is separated into three landcover types i.e. oil palm, mangrove and mixed forest. The LiDAR data is filtered based on: 1) Adaptive TIN (ATIN), 2) Progressive morphology (Morph), and 3) Elevation Threshold with Expand Window (ETEW). The DTMs are generated by interpolating the ground points using Ordinary Kriging and Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) methods. The quality of DTMs is evaluated based on the combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches. The results show that combination of ATIN and Ordinary Kriging has produced DTMs with higher quality compared to other combination of filtering and interpolation technique. The smallest value of RMSE obtained for terrain covered by oil palm (0.21m) followed by mixed forest (0.25m) and mangrove (0.32m). |
