Comparative Evaluation of a Newly Developed Trunk-Based Tree Detection/Localization Strategy on Leaf-Off LiDAR Point Clouds with Varying Characteristics

LiDAR data acquired by various platforms provide unprecedented data for forest inventory and management. Among its applications, individual tree detection and segmentation are critical and prerequisite steps for deriving forest structural metrics, especially at the stand level. Although there are va...
