Forest Canopy LAI and Vertical FAVD Profile Inversion from Airborne Full-Waveform LiDAR Data Based on a Radiative Transfer Model
Forest canopy leaf area index (LAI) is a critical variable for the modeling of climates and ecosystems over both regional and global scales. This paper proposes a physically based method to retrieve LAI and foliage area volume density (FAVD) profile directly from full-waveform Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) data using a radiative transfer (RT) model. First, a physical interaction model bet...

متن کاملAirborne Lidar Simulator for the Lidar Surface Topography (LIST) Mission
In 2007, the National Research Council (NRC) completed its first decadal survey for Earth science at the request of NASA, NOAA, and USGS.[1] The Lidar Surface Topography (LIST) mission is one of fifteen missions recommended by NRC, whose primary objectives are to map global topography and vegetation structure at 5 m spatial resolution, and to acquire global surface height mapping within a few y...
متن کاملAirborne Altimetric Lidar Simulator: an Education Tool
This paper describes development of a simulator for airborne altimetric LiDAR. Main aim of simulator is to replicate the functioning of LiDAR sensor and generate data for a given terrain with specified parameters of the sensor and trajectory. The simulator has three components: 1) Terrain component, 2) Sensor component, and 3) Platform component. The terrain component is formed using multiple m...
متن کاملModeling Lidar Waveforms Using a Radiative Transfer Model
In the past, obtaining reliable measurements of key forest canopy metrics has been difficult, even after the development of remote sensing technology. Fortunately, next-generation lidar systems are proving to be useful tools for deriving critical canopy measurements, such as height, structure and biomass. These studies have all focused on empirical comparisons between basic lidar-derived and fi...
