Extraction of Urban Objects in Cloud Shadows on the basis of Fusion of Airborne LiDAR and Hyperspectral Data

Description: This article, fused airborne LiDAR and hyperspectral data were used to extract urban objects in cloud shadows.The experimental results confirm that the proposed method is very effective for urban object extraction in cloud shadows and thus improve urban applications such as urban green land management, land use analysis, and impervious surface assessment.
