Classification of airborne laser scanning (ALS) point clouds of power lines is of great importance to their reconstruction. However, it is still a difficult task to efficiently and accurately classify the ground, vegetation, power lines and power pylons from ALS point clouds. Therefore, in this paper, a method is proposed to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the classification of point clouds of transmission lines, which is based on improved Random Forest and multi-scale features. The point clouds are filtered by the optimized progressive TIN densification filtering algorithm, then the elevations of the filtered point cloud are normalized. The features of the point cloud at different scales are calculated according to the basic features of the point cloud and the characteristics of transmission lines. The Relief F and Sequential Backward Selection algorithm are used to select the best subset of features to estimate the parameters of the learning model, then an Improved Random Forest classification model is built to classify the point clouds. The proposed method is verified by using three different samples from the study area and the results show that, compared with the methods based on Support Vector Machines, AdaBoost or Random Forest, our method can reduce feature redundancy and has higher classification accuracy and efficiency.
