Improving forest height assessment using LiDAR
Measuring Forest Canopy Height Using a Combination of LIDAR and Aerial Photography Data
... Two stereo-pairs of aerial photos were used in this study. The first was acquired at the scale of 1:15,000 on July 11th 1994 at an above sea level (ASL) altitude of 2600 m. The second was captured at a scale of 1:40,000 ...
