A Comparison of Remote Sensing Methods for Estimating Above-Ground Carbon Biomass at a Wetland Restoration Area in the Southeastern Coastal Plain by
Developing accurate but inexpensive methods for estimating above-ground carbon biomass is an important technical challenge that must be overcome before a carbon offset market can be successfully implemented. Previous studies have shown that full-waveform LiDAR (light detection and ranging) is well suited for modeling above-ground biomass in mature forests; however, there has been little previou...
متن کاملAirborne Lidar: Advances in Discrete Return Technology for 3D Vegetation Mapping
Conventional discrete return airborne lidar systems, used in the commercial sector for efficient generation of high quality spatial data, have been considered for the past decade to be an ideal choice for various mapping applications. Unlike two-dimensional aerial imagery, the elevation component of airborne lidar data provides the ability to represent vertical structure details with very high ...
متن کاملApplication of Semi-Automated Filter to Improve Waveform Lidar Sub-Canopy Elevation Model
Modeling sub-canopy elevation is an important step in the processing of waveform lidar data to measure three dimensional forest structure. Here, we present a methodology based on high resolution discrete-return lidar (DRL) to correct the ground elevation derived from large-footprint Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS) and to improve measurement of forest structure. We use data acquired over ...
متن کاملForest Characteristics and Effects on LiDAR Waveforms Modeling and Simulation
LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) remote sensing has been used to extract surface information as it can acquire highly accurate object shape characteristics using geo-registered 3D-points, and therefore, proven to be satisfactory for many applications, such as high-resolution elevation model generation, 3-D city mapping, vegetation structure estimation, etc. Large footprint LiDAR especially, ...
متن کاملAirborne LiDAR for the Detection of Archaeological Vegetation Marks Using Biomass as a Proxy
In arable landscapes, the airborne detection of archaeological features is often reliant on using the properties of the vegetation cover as a proxy for sub-surface features in the soil. Under the right conditions, the formation of vegetation marks allows archaeologists to identify and interpret archaeological features. Using airborne Laser Scanning, based on the principles of Light Detection an...
