Influence of voxel size on forest canopy height estimates using full-waveform airborne LiDAR data

Abstract Background Forest canopy height is a key forest structure parameter. Precisely estimating forest canopy height is vital to improve forest management and ecological modelling. Compared with discrete-return LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), small-footprint full-waveform airborne LiDAR (FWL...
