Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are directed at using LiDAR data to identify attributes of vegetation. In this regard, a method is provided that allocates points to individual items of vegetation from raw LiDAR data. In one embodiment, the method includes selecting a coordinate position represented in the LiDAR data that generated a return signal. Then, a determination is made regarding whether the selected coordinate position is inside a geographic area allocated to a previously identified item of vegetation. If the selected coordinate position is not within a geographic area allocated to a previously identified item of vegetation, the method determines that the selected coordinate position is associated with a new item of vegetation. In this instance, a digital representation of the new item of vegetation is generated.

Abstract: For wireless communications within unplanned user deployable networks, for example in peer-to-peer networks supporting mobile nodes, various discovery procedures may be employed. The process of discovering nodes in a network may begin with the broadcast of a discovery signal. In order to conserve battery power, nodes typically do not continuously broadcast the discovery signal, but there may still be times where a node is consuming excess power. To improve the way discovery is managed, in one aspect, there is disclosed an apparatus for wireless communications, comprising a processing system configured to support wireless discovery for a remote node by utilizing a dynamically self-configurable wireless topology to assist the remote node in identifying another remote node that is available to communicate with the remote node via an ad hoc wireless connection.
