Detailed Description

Detects and classifies outliers within a point cloud.

LiDAR data usually contain a low number of outliers, resulting from multipath reflections (long ranges) or air reflections originate from birds, clouds, dust, etc. (short ranges). In general, those outlier echoes appear as isolated points within the cloud and therefore easy to detect. Currently, a simple single point detection (within a 3D neighborhood) is used, to classify points as outliers
