Interpolation Routines Assessment in ALS-Derived Digital Elevation Models for Forestry Applications

Interpolation Routines Assessment in ALS-Derived Digital Elevation Models for Forestry Applications

Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is capable of estimating a variety of forest parameters using different metrics extracted from the normalized heights of the point cloud using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). In this study, six interpolation routines were tested over a range of land cover and terrain r...
