Automatic identification of discontinuities and refined modeling of rock blocks from 3D point cloud data of rock surfaces

The spatial distribution of discontinuities and the size of rock blocks are the key indicators for rock mass quality evaluation and rockfall risk assessment. Traditional manual measurement is often dangerous or unreachable at some high-steep rock slopes. In contrast, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) ph...
