Hi Sara, your help is highly appreciated! There are no new commands, only one in grass7 called r.resamp.bspline. Contrary to v.surf.bspline, it uses a raster map as input and resamples that map to the resolution and extends of the current computational region. The existing commands have been modified and fixed where necessary. They should all run faster now and some problems with the zones overlapping adjacent subregions where eliminated. Still, more testing is always good, it seems that the previous version of the lidar tools did not receive a lot of testing or bug fixing...
There is one open issue with edge detection. v.lidar.edgedetection uses two criteria, a high gradient threshold and a low gradient threshold (hard and soft criterion). All points with a gradient larger than high gradient threshold are classified as edges. All points with a gradient larger than low gradient threshold and smaller than high gradient threshold are investigated more closely, but only if they are in the core interpolation zone and do not fall into an overlapping zone. In my tests, it seemed to be ok to treat points in the overlapping zone identical to points in the core zone. I understand why the module is conservative and currently treats these points as unknown and does not classify them as terrain or edge, but it seems to me that this is a bit overly conservative. It would be great if you could look into this issue! I could send you a patch for v.lidar.edgedetection that classifies all points to either terrain or edge, so you can analyse the classification accuracy.
