Computed Tomography as a Tool for Quantification and Classification of Roundwood—Case Study

The first goal of this paper is to verify the accuracy four calculation methods log volume. tool achieve compare results volume with real obtained from three-dimensional reconstruction by computed tomography. second determine effectiveness displaying qualitative features wood in models selected pieces logs oak, beech, and spruce, which were using It possible state that each tested are applicable practice. excellent determining spruce a small variance values, conversely, case beech wood, most inaccurate largest values. When logs, we recommend method STN 48 0009, because it achieves best results. Qualitative analysis based on CT scans internal can be described as completely new level approach evaluation quality. performed showed great potential for automatic detection log. In defects distinguishable deciduous oak situation more complicated. structure these trees overlaps wood. To accurately detect errors trees, will necessary perform many comparative tests optimal
