Abstract
Helicopters are widely used in emergency situations, where knowing if a geographical location is adequate for landing is a critical issue, and it is far from being a straightforward task. In this work, we present a method to detect and classify landing sites from LiDAR data in parallel on multi- and manycore systems using OpenMP. Load balancing was identified as the main cause of poor performance because the computational cost depends mainly on the input data. Results for a set of LiDAR point clouds that represent different real scenarios were used as case studies in this work. Balancing strategies for three different multi- and manycore systems were analyzed. The proposed load balancing techniques increase performance up to three times from the unbalanced case.
