Automatic Background Filtering Method for Roadside LiDAR Data

Abstract The high-resolution micro traffic data (HRMTD) of all roadway users is important for serving the connected-vehicle system in mixed traffic situations. The roadside LiDAR sensor gives a solution to providing HRMTD from real-time 3D point clouds of its scanned objects. Background filtering is the preprocessing step to obtain the HRMTD of different roadway users from roadside LiDAR data. It can significantly reduce the data processing time and improve the vehicle/pedestrian identification accuracy. An algorithm is proposed in this paper, based on the spatial distribution of laser points, which filters both static and moving background efficiently. Various thresholds of point density are applied in this algorithm to exclude background at dif ferent distances from the roadside sensor. The case study shows that the algorithm can filter background LiDAR points in dif ferent situations (different road geometries, different traffic demands, day/night time, different speed limits). Vehicle and pedestrian shape can be retained well after background filtering. The low computational load guarantees this method can be applied for real-time data processing such as vehicle monitoring and pedestrian tracking.
