Quality Assured Deformation Analysis of Civil Infrastructures Using TLS Point Clouds

Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) has emerged as a pivotal technology in 3D data acquisition. Within this context, the assessment of deformations in civil structures through TLS point clouds has become a critical research area.

The primary objective of this master's thesis is to conduct an extensive deformation analysis using TLS point clouds, with a focus on developing a robust quality modeling framework and assessing the significance of identified deformations. To achieve this, the study will investigate the integration of quality information into surface approximations techniques to improve the reliability of deformation analysis.
