Automated Extraction of 3D Trees from Mobile LiDAR Point Clouds

This paper presents an automated algorithm for extracting 3D trees directly from 3D mobile light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data. To reduce both computational and spatial complexities, ground points are first filtered out from a raw 3D point cloud via blockbased elevation filtering. Off-ground...
