VOXEL-BASED ESTIMATION OF PLANT AREA DENSITY FROM AIRBORNE LASER SCANNER DATA
Three-dimensional distribution of plant area density (PAD) was retrieved using airborne laser scanning (ALS) data. The calculation of PAD requires the number of laser-pulses intercepted by plant materials and which are not intercepted by trees (i.e., passed laser-pulses) for the spatial unit. To est...
