LiDAR-Based Point Cloud Data Processing

The presentation includes the procedures of utilizing LiDAR-based point cloud data in WebGL applications, such as capturing data, processing data, importing point cloud into Unity software, and improving application performance. It uses IRC BLD 603 Lab B-12 as an example. It'll be presented at Viz n Learn workshop which is a collaboration series between INL's Applied Visualization Laboratory (AVL) and University of Wyoming (UW)'s Shell 3D Visualization center. Each session will highlight 2 projects from each institution monthly, followed by discussion on areas of collaborative interest and action.

Online Heatmap Generation with Both High and Low Weights

Heatmap is a common geovisualization method that interpolates and visualizes a set of point observations on a map surface. Most of online web mapping libraries implement a one-pass heatmap algorithm using HTML5 canvas or WebGL for efficient heatmap generation. However, such implementation applies additive operations that accumulate the rendering of point weights on the map surface grid, making it inappropriate for visualizations that require the highlighting of both low and high weights. We introduce \textit{hilomap}, an online heatmap algorithm that highlights surface areas where points with both low and high trends are located. An HTML5 Canvas-based reference implementation on OpenLayers is presented and evaluated.
