UAV LiDAR for below-canopy forest surveys
Remote sensing tools are increasingly being used to survey forest structure. Most current methods rely on GPS signals, which are available in above-canopy surveys or in below-canopy surveys of open forests, but may be absent in below-canopy environments of dense forests. We trialled a technology that facilitates mobile surveys in GPS-denied below-canopy forest environments. The platform consist...
متن کاملUAV Remote Sensing for Urban Vegetation Mapping Using Random Forest and Texture Analysis
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing has great potential for vegetation mapping in complex urban landscapes due to the ultra-high resolution imagery acquired at low altitudes. Because of payload capacity restrictions, off-the-shelf digital cameras are widely used on medium and small sized UAVs. The limitation of low spectral resolution in digital cameras for vegetation mapping can be re...
متن کاملMapping urban forest leaf area index with airborne lidar using penetration metrics and allometry
a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Airborne lidar Leaf area index Urban ecosystem analysis Hemispherical photography Allometry Vegetation structure In urban areas, leaf area index (LAI) is a key ecosystem structural attribute with implications for energy and water balance, gas exchange, and anthropogenic energy use. In this study, we estimated LAI spatially using airborne lidar in downtown Santa B...
متن کاملMapping Individual Tree Species in an Urban Forest Using Airborne Lidar Data and Hyperspectral Imagery
0099-1112/12/7810–1079/$3.00/0 © 2012 American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Abstract We developed a neural network based approach to identify urban tree species at the individual tree level from lidar and hyperspectral imagery. This approach is capable of modeling the characteristics of multiple spectral signatures within each species using an internally unsupervised engine, an...
متن کاملMapping Wild Leek through the Forest Canopy Using a UAV
Wild leek, an endangered plant species of Eastern North America, grows on forest floors and greens up to approximately three weeks before the trees it is typically found under, temporarily allowing it to be observed through the canopy by remote sensing instruments. This paper explores the accuracy with which wild leek can be mapped with a low-flying UAV. Nadir video imagery was obtained using a...
