As a key canopy structure parameter, the estimation method of Leaf Area Index (LAI) has always attracted attention. To explore potential to estimate forest LAI from 3D point cloud at low cost, we took photos different angles drone and set five schemes (O (0°), T15 (15°), T30 (30°), OT15 (0° 15°) OT30 30°)), which were used reconstruct based on photogrammetry. Subsequently, values leaf area dist...
