Today’s advanced LiDAR systems typically lack the ability to autonomously detect man-made shapes and structures and provide that 3-D data to Geospatial Intelligence quickly and effectively to aid in tactical decisions. Rincon Research Corporation (RRC) presents its solution to this problem through the design and development of algorithms that perform onboard Automated Feature Extraction (AFE) and/or aided target recognition (AiTR) on Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data. This approach leverages our extensive, proven techniques in AFE technology and focuses on feature extraction algorithms that are designed to run in near real time, provide significant data reduction, and transmit objects of interest over a limited data link to the analyst in near real time.
