Abstract. Surveys of roadways with Mobile Laser Scanning (MLS) are nowadays the faster and more secured way to collect topographic data compared with conventional techniques. To deliver topographic plans, the voluminous data collected by the MLS device need to be processed. If the acquisition step is quite fast, the second part of interpretation and vectorization of the LiDAR data and the panoramic images is laborious and time consuming. This paper proposes two approaches that have been developed in order to reduce the time required to process roadway MLS data. The first one is about automatic detection of pole like objects, and the second one is about the detection of linear objects. The presented workflow try to automatically extract a 3D position for each object from MLS Data.
