Efficient Calculation Method for Tree Stem Traits from Large-Scale Point Clouds of Forest Stands

Efficient Calculation Method for Tree Stem Traits from Large-Scale Point Clouds of Forest Stands

With the use of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) in forest stands, surveys are now equipped to obtain dense point cloud data. However, the data range, i.e., the number of points, often reaches the billions or even higher, exceeding random access memory (RAM) limits on common computers. Moreover, the...
