Application and Validation of a Model for Terrain Slope Estimation Using Space-Borne LiDAR Waveform Data

The terrain slope is one of the most important surface characteristics for quantifying the Earth surface processes. Space-borne LiDAR sensors have produced high-accuracy and large-area terrain measurement within the footprint. However, rigorous procedures are required to accurately estimate the terr...
