Case Applications for Forest Resource Assessment Using Airborne Laser Scanner
Three case applications for forest resource assessment using airborne laser scanner (LiDAR) will be introduced. The first case is “assessment of high density forest area”. The area where forest maintenance is necessary is extracted using colour composite of three layers developed from laser point group; (1) attained distance from DSM into forest (2) tree height (3) reflection intensity. The sec...
متن کاملEstimating Single Tree Stem Volume of Pinus sylvestris Using Airborne Laser Scanner and Multispectral Line Scanner Data
So far, only a few studies have been carried out in central European forests to estimate individual tree stem volume of pine trees from high resolution remote sensing data. In this article information derived from airborne laser scanner and multispectral line scanner data were tested to predict the stem volume of 178 pines (Pinus sylvestris) in a study site in the south-west of Germany. First, ...
متن کاملEstimating Forest Structure Indices for Evaluation of Forest Bird Habitats by an Airborne Laser Scanner
Bird species diversity is affected by the vertical and horizontal diversity of forest structure; therefore, several indices of forest structure have been proposed for the evaluation of bird habitats. If these indices could be measured in a wide area by remote sensing, it would be very useful for wildlife habitat assessment. The indices that we evaluated based on whether they can be estimated fr...
متن کاملGround Surface Estimation from Airborne Laser Scanner Data Using Active Shape Models
Various filtering techniques exist to obtain the ground from laser radar data to use when building digital terrain models. This paper develops an active shape model approach to estimate the ground surface from laser radar data. The active shape model acts like a rubber cloth with elasticity and rigidity. With constraint forces the model is formed to an estimate of the ground surface. The model ...
متن کاملApplication of Airborne Laser Scanner
This dissertation explores the use of an Airborne Laser Scanner (ALS) for various types of aircraft Terrain-Referenced Navigation (TRN) techniques. Using the methods explored, an ALS-based TERRain Aided Inertial Navigator (TERRAIN) was developed, flight tested, and shown capable of providing meter-level positioning accuracy in real-time. The ALS-based TRN techniques discussed are constrained to...
