CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES: ONE STOP PROCESSING OF AUTOMATIC LARGE-SCALE BASE MAP PRODUCTION USING AIRBORNE LIDAR DATA WITHIN GIS ENVIRONMENT. CASE STUDY: MAKASSAR CITY, INDONESIA

Abstract. LiDAR data acquisition is recognized as one of the fastest solutions to provide basis data for large-scale topographical base maps worldwide. Automatic LiDAR processing is believed one possible scheme to accelerate the large-scale topographic base map provision by the Geospatial Information Agency in Indonesia. As a progressive advanced technology, Geographic Information System (GIS) open possibilities to deal with geospatial data automatic processing and analyses. Considering further needs of spatial data sharing and integration, the one stop processing of LiDAR data in a GIS environment is considered a powerful and efficient approach for the base map provision. The quality of the automated topographic base map is assessed and analysed based on its completeness, correctness, quality, and the confusion matrix.
