Abstract : p3D city modelling plays a major role in today's smart city development. LiDAR facilitates acquisition and processing of point cloud data. The proposed plan in this paper will estimate the height of a building. LiDAR data processing is done by the software, LAS tools. In this paper the study focuses on LiDAR scan of urban scenes buildings. Canopy Height Model CHM of a building is obtained which is useful in finding the height of a building, shape of the building and peak location. This can be a contribution to smart city modeling and urban development. Canopy height model for LiDAR data is obtained through classifiers and filters available in LAStools. Also this paper presents about Digital Terrain Model DTM and Digital Surface Model DSM for LiDAR point cloud data. Further the obtained CHM can be used for the application of finding the number of buildings in an area which are above a threshold height. © 2018 IEEE./p
