A Robust Stepwise Clustering Approach to Detect Individual Trees in Temperate Hardwood Plantations using Airborne LiDAR Data

A Robust Stepwise Clustering Approach to Detect Individual Trees in Temperate Hardwood Plantations using Airborne LiDAR Data

Precise tree inventory plays a critical role in sustainable forest planting, restoration, and management. LiDAR-based individual tree detection algorithms often focus on finding individual treetops to discern tree positions. However, deliquescent tree forms (broad, flattened crowns) in deciduous for...
