Nighttime Mobile Laser Scanning and 3D Luminance Measurement: Verifying the Outcome of Roadside Tree Pruning with Mobile Measurement of the Road Environment

Roadside vegetation can affect the performance of installed road lighting.We demonstrate a workflow in which a car-mounted measurement system is used to assess the light-obstructing effect of roadside vegetation.The mobile mapping system (MMS) includes a panoramic camera system, laser scanner, inertial measurement unit, and satellite positioning system.

The workflow and the measurement Freezer Drawer Cover system were applied to a road section of Munkkiniemenranta, Helsinki, Finland, in 2015 and 2019.The relative luminance distribution on a road surface and the Mens Sweaters obstructing vegetation were measured before and after roadside vegetation pruning applying a luminance-calibrated mobile mapping system.The difference between the two measurements is presented, and the opportunities provided by the mobile 3D luminance measurement system are discussed.
