Building footprint data are also helpful in the calculation of built‐up volume. As Figure 2.5 illustrates, the input point cloud data (a) are used to create a DHM raster that is further altered by extracting only pixels within building footprint extents – notice the tree canopies along the streets (b) are no longer visible within the clipped DHM (c). Importantly, this removes all nonbuilt‐up pixels from the analysis for accurate volume estimation. At this stage, volume calculation is conducted at a per‐pixel or per‐building scale (refer to Figure 2.3). In the example provided in Figure 2.5, the height values are in meters and the spatial resolution is 1 m making the per‐pixel volume the same as the height value (though in m3). The per‐building alternative would sum the values of all pixel centroids falling within individual building footprint extents (e.g. zonal statistics in a GIS) and spatially join the per‐building sum value to the building footprint polygons as an attribute.
Multi‐temporal lidar data analysis facilitates the quantification of built‐up change within urban areas (Vu et al. 2004; Ellis and Mathews 2019) including characterization of types of changes occurring (Teo and Shih 2013; Dong et al. 2018). Although many change detection options exist (too many to cover here), direct differencing of the multi‐temporal DHMs is a common approach. The difference of DHMs (or differential DHM), simply dDHM, is calculated by Eq. (2.2) where t1 indicates the first lidar data acquisition (time 1) and t2 represents the second (time 2):

The clipped dataset (c) is used for urban built‐up volume (m3 summed per 1 m pixel).
FIGURE 2.6 An example of built‐up change in southeast San Antonio, Texas: 2003 DHM (a), 2012 DHM (b), and difference of DHM (dDHM) (c). For the DHMs (a, b), pixels with higher values are shown with white (i.e. tall buildings) whereas lower values are black (i.e. ground). For the dDHM, red color indicates decreases in height (e.g. demolished buildings, removed trees) between the two years whereas blue denotes increases in height (e.g. new buildings, new or larger tree canopies).
The resulting dDHM (see ahead to Figures 2.6 and 2.7 for examples) rapidly visualizes the extreme changes within the urban environment, namely newly constructed or demolished buildings. The differences identified are then summarized a number of different ways (e.g. amount of built‐up volume increase between t1 and t2, net increase/decrease of built‐up volume). Other approaches attach height and/or volumes attributes to multi‐temporal building footprints for a discrete vector analysis of change. Types of changes (e.g. from vegetation to building, building to demolished building) are characterized using criteria such as roof pitches/slopes, volumetric change metrics, and other parameters (Teo and Shih 2013; Dong et al. 2018). Multi‐temporal lidar analyses though, like any change detection work within remote sensing, are not without challenges and limitations. Specifically, comparison of multiple datasets is difficult when different data acquisition parameters (e.g. point densities, number of returns, time of year), data are pre‐processed and only provided in raster format (i.e. line‐up issues between datasets that must be resolved), lack of available ancillary datasets, and more.

2.3.2.1 Case Study: San Antonio, Texas
Texas cities have undergone tremendous growth over the past several decades. Unlike other US cities that have witnessed population stagnation or decline (e.g. Detroit, Buffalo), cities such as San Antonio have undergone a 34% increase in population in less than two decades; from 1.1 million residents in 2000 to 1.5 million by 2018 (US Census 2019). Subsequently, such changes are reflected on the urban landscape through residential development (e.g. housing, apartment building) and growth of retail/commercial spaces. Multi‐temporal lidar data provide an ideal geospatial dataset with which to identify such changes in 3D space; in this brief case study, we use lidar‐derived 1 m spatial resolution raster data provided by the Army Geospatial Center collected during the summer months (leaf‐on conditions) in 2003 and 2012.
As an example of 3D change in an urban area, Figure 2.6 shows change in a commercial/retail space in southeast San Antonio between 2003 and 2012. When visually compared, the 2003 and 2012 DHMs (a and b respectively) indicate the removal of a large commercial building at the center and new build‐up in a portion of the space. When differenced via a dDHM, a single dataset can display the change including the type of change. For instance, Figure 2.6c shows the large building from 2003 in red that was demolished by 2012 where new build‐up is shown with blue. Interestingly, the dDHM reveals built‐up “ghosts” (red) that formerly dominated the urban landscape.
At the city‐scale (Figure 2.7), the dDHM highlights extreme (large area) changes well. In this case, many large buildings removed between 2003 and 2012 (red) are visible west/southwest of downtown and along the interstate southeast of downtown. New build‐up (blue) is especially СКАЧАТЬ
