  • Publication number: 20160379366
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are provided for aligning three-dimensional point clouds that each includes data representing at least a portion of an area-of-interest. The area-of-interest is divided into multiple regions, each region having a closed-loop structure defined by a plurality of border segments, each border segment including a plurality of fragments. Point clouds representing the fragments that make up each closed-loop region are aligned with one another in a parallelized manner, for instance, utilizing a Simultaneous Generalized Iterative Closest Point (SGICP) technique, to create aligned point cloud regions. Aligned point cloud regions sharing a common border segment portion are aligned with one another to create a single, consistent, aligned point cloud having data that accurately represents the area-of-interest.
