Remote sensing of forests using discrete return airborne LiDAR
Airborne discrete return light detection and ranging (LiDAR) point clouds covering forested areas can be processed to segment individual trees and retrieve their morphological attributes. Segmenting individual trees in natural deciduous forests however remained a challenge because of the complex and multi-layered canopy. In this chapter, we present (i) a robust segmentation method that avoids a...
متن کاملAirborne mapping using LIDAR
Mapping is a central and common task in robotics research. Building an accurate map without human assistance provides several applications such as space missions, search and rescue, surveillance and can be used in dangerous areas. One application for robotic mapping is to measure changes in terrain volume. In Sweden there are over a hundred landfills that are regulated by laws that says that th...
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 کاملFusion of Airborne Discrete-Return LiDAR and Hyperspectral Data for Land Cover Classification
Accurate land cover classification information is a critical variable for many applications. This study presents a method to classify land cover using the fusion data of airborne discrete return LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and CASI (Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager) hyperspectral data. Four LiDAR-derived images (DTM, DSM, nDSM, and intensity) and CASI data (48 bands) with 1 m spat...
متن کاملEstimation of Aboveground Forest Biomass Using Airborne Scanning Discrete Return Lidar in Douglas-fir
Models based on laser height metrics matching different quantiles of the distribution of laser canopy heights should be similar to one another with respect to their predictive capabilities of aboveground biomass providing: 1) the allometric relationships in the trees studied remain consistent; and 2) the vertical distributions of laser canopy heights and needle area/mass are related according t...
