Title
Reconstructing Stem Cross Section Shapes From Terrestrial Laser Scanning.
Abstract
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is an effective tool for retrieving forest attributes. For example, stem diameters can be estimated from the TLS point cloud by applying automatic algorithms, which often approximate the stem cross section by using a circle or a cylinder. However, the cross section of a tree stem is never exactly a circle. Moreover, the cross section provides other economically imp...
