Topographic Laser Ranging and Scanning
A systematic, in-depth introduction to theories and principles of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology is long overdue, as it is the most important geospatial data acquisition technology to be introduced in recent years. An advanced discussion, this text fills the void. Professionals in fields ranging from geology, geography and geoinformatics to physics, transportation, and law enforcement will benefit from this comprehensive discussion of topographic LiDAR principles, systems, data acquisition, and data processing techniques. The book covers ranging and scanning fundamentals, and broad, contemporary analysis of airborne LiDAR systems, as well as those situated on land and in spac...
Topographic Laser Ranging and Scanning
Topographic Laser Ranging and Scanning, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive discussion of topographic LiDAR principles, systems, data acquisition, and data processing techniques. This edition presents an introduction and summary of various LiDAR systems and their principles and addresses the operational principles of the different components and ranging methods of LiDAR systems. It discusses the subsequent geometric processing of LiDAR data, with particular attention to quality, accuracy, and meeting standards and addresses the theories and practices of information extraction from LiDAR data, including terrain surface generation, forest inventory, orthoimage generation, building reconst...
Airborne LiDAR
LiDAR (or airborne laser scanning) systems became a dominant player in high-precision spatial data acquisition to efficiently create DEM/DSM in the late 90's. With increasing point density, new systems are now able to support object extraction, such as extracting building and roads, from LiDAR data. The novel concept of this project was to use LiDAR data for traffic flow estimates. In a sense, extracting vehicles over transportation corridors represents the next step in complexity by adding the temporal component to the LiDAR data feature extraction process. The facts are that vehicles are moving at highway speeds and the scanning acquisition mode of the LiDAR certainly poses a serious challenge for the data extraction process. The OSU developed method and its implementation, the I FLOW program, have demonstrated that LiDAR data contain valuable information to support vehicle extraction, including vehicle grouping and localizations. The classification performance showed strong evidence that the major vehicle categories can be efficiently separated. The I FLOW program is ready for deployment.
The Fourth Marine Brigade in World War I
During World War I, the American Expeditionary Force Second Division saw more action and captured more ground and enemy combatants than any other, including the vaunted First Division. The 4th Marine Brigade, especially, earned a reputation as a steadfast unit of superb fighting men. Drawing on battle reports and other official documents, this volume follows those Marines through their service in France in 1917 and 1918, their postwar occupation of Germany, and their arrival in New York City in August 1919. Chapters covering each of the brigade's seven battalions recount their role in some of the most intense battles of the war, including Belleau Wood, Soissons, St. Mihiel, Blanc Mont and the Meuse River. Descriptions of the Armistice, homecoming parades, and the brigade's inactivation at Quantico complete this comprehensive chronicle of one of the American military's most distinguished units.

The Synod of Dort
The Synod of Dort was an international conference of Reformed leaders held in 1618–1619 in the Netherlands. It is famous for its so-called Five Points of Calvinism which were a refutation of the Five Remonstrances of the followers of Arminius on the nature of divine grace and the perseverance of believers unto eternal salvation. As an international Synod, Dort made a significant impact on the definition and development of Reformed orthodoxy for decades and centuries to come. In countries such as France, the Canons of Dort served as a confessional boundary for Reformed orthodoxy and all pastors had to swear allegiance to them. Despite its tremendous influence, the decisions of the Synod of ...
