Individual mangrove tree parameters are necessary for the efficient management and
protection of this unique ecosystem, but to measure them using remote sensing (RS) is still a …

Experiences from Nordic countries and Canada have shown that the retrieval of the stem
volume and mean tree height of a tree or at stand level from laser scanner data performs as …

Quantitative comparisons of tree height observations from different sources are scarce due
to the difficulties in effective sampling. In this study, the reliability and robustness of tree …

Ideal for both undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of geography, forestry,
ecology, geographic information science, remote sensing, and photogrammetric …

Abstract Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) has demonstrated potential for forest
inventory at the individual-tree level. The aim in this study was to predict individual-tree …

Topographic Laser Ranging and Scanning, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive
discussion of topographic LiDAR principles, systems, data acquisition, and data processing …

This paper depicts an approach for predicting individual tree attributes, ie, tree height,
diameter at breast height (DBH) and stem volume, based on both physical and statistical …

This article reviews the research and application of airborne laser scanning for forest
inventory in Finland, Norway and Sweden. The first experiments with scanning lasers for …

Understanding and diagnosing plant responses to stress will benefit greatly from three-
dimensional (3D) measurement and analysis of plant properties because plant responses …

Light detection and ranging (lidar) data is increasingly being used for ecosystem monitoring
across geographic scales. This work concentrates on delineating individual trees in …
