Progressive noise photons removal from ICESAT-2 data based on the characteristics of different types of noise by Zhenyang Hui, Li Zhang, Shuanggen Jin, Wenbo Chen, Penggen Cheng, Yao Yevenyo Ziggah

“…Specifically, isolated noise photons are automatically identified using a multi-thresholding strategy based on the maximum between-clustering variance algorithm without requiring parameter tuning. Low-density clustered noise photons are removed using the ellipse-based photon counting method, where the Douglas-Peucker algorithm is utilized to align the ellipse’s major axis with the locally calculated terrain slope. …”
