Abstract High-precision step feature lines play a crucial role in open-pit mine design, production scheduling, mining volume calculations, road network planning, and slope maintenance. Compared with the feature lines of the geometric model, step feature lines are more irregular, complex, higher in density, and richer in detail. In this study, a novel technique for extracting step feature line from large-scale point clouds of open-pit mine by leveraging structural attributes, that is, SFLE_OPM (Step Feature Line Extraction for Open-Pit Mine), is proposed. First, we adopt the k-dimensional tree (KD-tree) resampling method to reduce the point-cloud density while retaining point-cloud features and utilize bilateral filtering for denoising. Second, we use Point Cloud Properties Network (PCPNET) to estimate the normal, calculate the slope and aspect, and then filter them. We then apply morphological operations to the step surface and obtain more continuous and smoother slope lines. In addition, we construct an Open-Pit Mine Step Feature Line (OPMSFL) dataset and benchmarked SFLE_OPM, achieving an accuracy score of 89.31% and true positive rate score of 80.18%. The results demonstrate that our method yields a higher extraction accuracy and precision than most of the existing methods. Our dataset is available at https://github.com/OPMDataSets/OPMSFL . |
