Accuracy and Precision of Stem Cross-Section Modeling in 3D Point Clouds from TLS and Caliper Measurements for Basal Area Estimation

Accuracy and Precision of Stem Cross-Section Modeling in 3D Point Clouds from TLS and Caliper Measurements for Basal Area Estimation

The utilization of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data for forest inventory purposes has increasingly gained recognition in the past two decades. Volume estimates from TLS data are usually derived from the integral of cross-section area estimates along the stem axis. The purpose of this study was...
