Assessment of Errors Caused by Forest Vegetation Structure in Airborne LiDAR-Derived DTMs
2017
Remote Sensing
In the presence of leaf-on vegetation, DTM accuracy is severely reduced, with low-stature undergrowth vegetation (such as ferns) causing the greatest errors (RMSE > 1 m). ...
Using the leaf-on LiDAR dataset we quantitatively assess vertical vegetation structure, and use this as a categorical explanatory variable for DTM accuracy. ...
The founding sponsors had no role in the design of the study; in the collection, analyses, or interpretation of data; in the writing of the manuscript, and in the decision to publish the results. ...

Estimation of shrub biomass by airborne LiDAR data in small forest stands
2011
Forest Ecology and Management
Airborne LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) has been used successfully in forestry to estimate dendrometric and dasometric variables that allow to characterize forest structure. ...
These results show the possibility of estimating shrub biomass in small areas when the density of LiDAR data is high and errors associated to the DTM are low. ...
This could be caused by the small difference in height between the canopy of vegetation and the ground. ...

Lidar for Biomass Estimation
[chapter]
2011
Biomass - Detection, Production and Usage
A previous work by Lefsky et al. (1999) presented the prediction of two forest structure attributes, crown size and aboveground biomass from Lidar data. ...
Airborne lidar is confirmed as the most ideal technology to obtain accurate CHM over large forested areas because of its high precision and its ability to receive ground returns over vegetated areas. ...
The Type II error induces some effects resulting from the fact that measured elevation values in Lidar data are replaced by interpolated values for DTM, which cause a zig-zag pattern in the DTM modeling ...
