Over the last two decades, rapid technological evolution has brought several advanced solutions for applications in various knowledge areas. Geotechnologies have allowed geoscientists to acquire vast amounts of spatialized digital data, producing equally large data sets. Light detection and ranging (lidar) technology, especially terrestrial laser scanners (TLSs), and the more recent reconstruction techniques that use [...]

Water quality monitoring through remote sensing with UAVs is best conducted using multispectral sensors; however, these sensors are expensive. We aimed to predict multispectral bands from a low-cost sensor (R, G, B bands) using artificial neural networks (ANN). We studied a lake located on the campus of Unisinos University, Brazil, using a low-cost sensor mounted [...]

The terrestrial laser scanner is an equipment developed for surveying applications and is also used for many other purposes due to its ability to acquire 3D data quickly. However, before intensity data can be analyzed, it must be processed in order to minimize the edge or border effect, one of the most serious problems of [...]

Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) networks facilitate accurate positioning over short and long distances on the surface of the Earth and expand the range of high-precision measurement. These networks are the basis not only for mapping activities, geoinformation, land registry and other location-based services, but also provide an important role in society as infrastructure works [...]
