Classification of forest development stages from national low-density lidar datasets: a comparison of machine learning methods

The area-based method has become a widespread approach in airborne laser scanning (ALS), being mainly employed for the estimation of continuous variables describing forest attributes: biomass, volume, density, etc. However, to date, classification methods based on machine learning, which are fairly...
