Zusammenfassung:Content Partner: New Zealand Journal of Forestry Science. Background LiDAR is an established technology that is increasingly being used to characterise spatial variation in stand metrics used in forest inventory. As the cost of LiDAR acquisition markedly declines with LiDAR pulse density, it is useful to identify how far pulse density can be reduced without compromising the precision ...
