BACKSCATTERING OF INDIVIDUAL LIDAR PULSES FROM FOREST CANOPIES EXPLAINED BY PHOTOGRAMMETRICALLY DERIVED VEGETATION STRUCTURE
In recent years, airborne LiDAR sensors have shown remarkable performance in the mapping of forest vegetation. This experimental study looks at LiDAR data at the scale of individual pulses to elucidate the sources behind interpulse variation in backscattering. Close-range photogrammetry was used f...
