ESTIMATING MIXED BROADLEAVES FOREST STAND VOLUME USING DSM EXTRACTED FROM DIGITAL AERIAL IMAGES

In mixed old growth broadleaves of Hyrcanian forests, it is difficult to estimate stand volume at plot level by remotely sensed data while LiDar data is absent. In this paper, a new approach has been proposed and tested for estimating stand forest volume. The approach is based on this idea that fore...
