The simulation of automatic ladar sensor control during flight operations using USU LadarSIM software
2006
USU LadarSIM Release 2.0 is a ladar simulator that has the ability to feed high-level mission scripts into a processor
that automatically generates scan commands during flight simulations. The scan generation depends on specified flight
trajectories and scenes consisting of terrain and targets. The scenes and trajectories can either consist of simulated or
actual data. The first modeling step produces an outline of scan footprints in xyz space. Once mission goals have been
analyzed and it is determined that the scan footprints are appropriately distributed or placed, specific scans can then be
chosen for the generation of complete radiometry-based range images and point clouds. The simulation is capable of
quickly modeling ray-trace geometry associated with (1) various focal plane arrays and scanner configurations and (2)
various scene and trajectories associated with particular maneuvers or missions.
