Summary of the Scandlaser 2003 Workshops and Recent Developments in Sweden
Selected findings from the ScandLaser workshops held in Umeå, Sweden, September 2-4, 2003 are summarised together with recent Swedish studies related to laser scanning of forests. By use of correlative methods, such as regression analysis between laser data features and field measured forest variables, promising results have been achieved in a large number of tests in Scandinavian coniferous fo...
متن کاملUsing Airborne Laser Scanning to Assess Forest Protection Function against Rockfall
Forests situated on slopes in mountainous areas can provide protection against natural hazards such as avalanches and rockfall. Quantifying this mitigating effect requires accurate mapping of forest stands and estimation of their dendrometric characteristics. However, steep terrain and lack of accessibility hamper field surveys. Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is a remote sensing technique whose ...
متن کاملFiltering of Laser Scanning Data in Forest Areas Using Finite Elements
During the last decade laser scanning turned out to be one of the most promising techniques in photogrammetry. Some photogrammetrists even say that laser scanning has caused a paradigm change in photogrammetry because of its big impact on methods like DTM generation or 3D city model reconstruction. Originally, laser scanning was designed for DTM generation in forest areas. For that purpose seve...
متن کاملDetermining leaf area index and leafy tree roughness using terrestrial laser scanning
[1] Vegetation roughness, and more specifically forest roughness, is a necessary component in better defining flood dynamics both in the sense of changes in river catchment characteristics and the dynamics of forest changes and management. Extracting roughness parameters from riparian forests can be a complicated process involving different components for different required scales and flow dept...
متن کاملData Mining for Biodiversity Prediction in Forests
There is international consensus on the key elements of sustainable forest management. Biological diversity has been recognised as one of them. This paper investigates the usefulness of terrestrial laser scanning technology in forest biodiversity assessment. Laser scanning is a rapidly emerging technology that captures high-resolution, 3-D structural information about forests and presently has ...
متن کاملQuantitative Mapping of Hydrodynamic Vegetation Density of Floodplain Forests Using Airborne Laser Scanning
The determination of hydrodynamic vegetation density of floodplain forests in the Netherlands is currently based on manually delineated vegetation types and a lookup table to convert these into vegetation density. In this paper a method is presented to extract vegetation density from high-density airborne laser scanner data. Field reference data were collected on 45 plots in three different flo...
