About 3DGOLDN – Quantum Mobility

3-D Geopositioned Object LIDAR De-conflicted Network (3DGOLDN)

This code is designed to integrate user-defined paths with LiDAR data, visualize them in a 3D space, and detect conflicts between various paths and LiDAR data points. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the code, its functions, and capabilities:

Main Workflow

Load LiDAR Data: The code starts by loading and preprocessing multiple LiDAR datasets.
Determine Extents: It calculates the combined extents of all LiDAR datasets to define the range for lattice points.
Create Lattice Points: A 3D lattice is created within the specified extents and spacing.
Coordinate Transformation: The lattice points and LiDAR data are converted betweenUTM and latitude/longitude coordinates as needed.
Pathfinding: The code finds paths through the lattice for multiple objects, taking intoaccount user-defined start, end, and intermediate nodes.
Conflict Detection: It checks for conflicts between points of different objects andbetween points and LiDAR data.
Visualization: Finally, it visualizes the lattice, LiDAR data, and paths in a 3D plot,highlighting any detected conflicts.

Capabilities

Multi-Object Pathfinding: Supports defining multiple objects with their own start, end, and intermediate nodes, and finds paths through a 3D lattice.
LiDAR Integration: Loads and visualizes LiDAR data, ensuring paths do not conflict with LiDAR points.
Conflict Detection: Detects spatial conflicts between object points and between object points and LiDAR data, providing detailed conflict information.
3D Visualization: Uses Plotly to create interactive 3D visualizations of the lattice, paths, and LiDAR data, aiding in analysis and verification.

This code provides a comprehensive solution for integrating user-defined paths with LiDAR data, ensuring spatial awareness and conflict detection, and visualizing the results in an intuitive 3D plot viewable from any perspective.
