Zusammenfassung: | Remote sensing-based forest investigation and monitoring have become more affordable and applicable in the past few decades. The current bottleneck limiting practical use of the vast volume of remote sensing data lies in the lack of affordable, reliable, and detailed field references, which are required for necessary calibrations of satellite and aerial data and calibrations of relevant allometric models. Conventional field investigations are mostly limited to a small scale, using a small quantity of observations. Rapid development in close-range remote sensing has been witnessed during the past two decades, i.e., in the constant decrease of the costs, size, and weight of sensors; steady improvements in the availability, mobility, and reliability of platforms; and progress in computational capacity and data science. These advances have paved the way for turning conventional expensive and inefficient manual forest in situ data collections into affordable and efficient autonomous observations. |
