An architectural model of trees to estimate forest structural attributes using terrestrial LiDAR
Terrestrial lidar (TLiDAR) has been used increasingly over recent years to assess tree architecture and to extract metrics of forest canopies. Analysis of TLiDAR data remains a difficult task mainly due to the effects of object occlusion and wind on the quality of the retrieved results. We propose to link TLiDAR and tree structure attributes by means of an architectural model. The proposed meth...
متن کاملUsing Small Area Estimation and Lidar-derived Variables for Multivariate Prediction of Forest Attributes
Small area estimation (SAE) techniques have been successfully applied in forest inventories to provide reliable estimates for domains where the sample size is small (i.e. small areas). Previous studies have explored the use of either Area Level or Unit Level Empirical Best Linear Unbiased Predictors (EBLUPs) in a univariate framework, modeling each variable of interest at a time, and not consid...
متن کاملForest and Terrestrial Systems
75 What I am going to be talking about this afternoon has been touched on in some of the other talks. I am going to be giving a little bit more detail, and I am also going to try to highlight some of the scientific progress, since 1990. That was brought up earlier this morning, and scientists do feel that we have made quite a bit of progress since 1990, the last big NAPAP assessment, particular...
متن کاملForest Inventory with Terrestrial LiDAR: A Comparison of Static and Hand-Held Mobile Laser Scanning
The application of static terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) in forest inventories is becoming more effective. Nevertheless, the occlusion effect is still limiting the processing efficiency to extract forest attributes. The use of a mobile laser scanner (MLS) would reduce this occlusion. In this study, we assessed and compared a hand-held mobile laser scanner (HMLS) with two TLS approaches (singl...
متن کاملEstimating Tropical Forest Structure Using a Terrestrial Lidar
Forest structure comprises numerous quantifiable biometric components and characteristics, which include tree geometry and stand architecture. These structural components are important in the understanding of the past and future trajectories of these biomes. Tropical forests are often considered the most structurally complex and yet least understood of forested ecosystems. New technologies have...
