Planar Roof Top Detection in LiDAR download

A new algorithm for extracting roof tops was developed.

Using the assumption that roof tops are planar in construction, a new approach was developed using volume of point clouds to determine whether a cluster contains planar points.

This approach yields very promising results and with attention applied to its weaknesses, should provide another algorithm which can rival currently available roof top detection methods.

Features

easy to understand Python
mostly cross-platform (may need to be tweaked for Windows/Mac)
high accuracy
actually easy to understand!
