Comparison of Canopy Cover and Leaf Area Index Estimation from Airborne LiDAR and Digital Aerial Photogrammetry in Tropical Forests

Digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) has emerged as an alternative to airborne laser scanning (ALS) for forest inventory applications, as it offers a low-cost and flexible three-dimensional (3D) point cloud. Unlike the forest inventory attributes (e.g., tree height and diameter at breast height), the...
