Abstract

As a basic asset of highways, guardrails are essential objects in the digital modeling of highways. Therefore, generating the vectorial 3D trajectory of a guardrail from mobile laser scanning (MLS) point clouds is required for real digital modeling. However, most methods limit straight-line guardrails without considering the continuity and accuracy of the guardrails in turnoff and bend areas; thus, a completed 3D trajectory of a guardrail is not available. We use RANDLA-Net for extracting guardrails as preprocessing of MLS point clouds. We perform a region growth strategy based on linear constraints to obtain correct instantiations and a forward direction. The improved Douglas– Puke algorithm is used to simplify the center points of guardrail, and the 3D trajectory of every guardrail can be vectorized using cubic spline curve fitting. The proposed approach is validated on two 3-km case data sets that can completely instantiate MLS point clouds with remarkable effects. Quantitative evaluations demonstrate that the proposed guardrail instantiation algorithm achieves an overall precision and recall of 98.80% and 97.5%, respectively. The generated 3D trajectory can provide a high-precision design standard for the 3D modeling of the guardrail and has been applied to a long highway scene.
