Estimating Stand Density in a Tropical Broadleaf Forest Using Airborne LiDAR Data

Forest-related statistics, including forest biomass, carbon sink, and the prevention of forest fires, can be obtained by estimating stand density. In this study, a dataset with the laser pulse density of 225.5 pulses/m2 was obtained using airborne laser scanning in a tropical broadleaf forest. Three...
