Influencing Factors in Estimation of Leaf Angle Distribution of an Individual Tree from Terrestrial Laser Scanning Data

Leaf angle distribution (LAD) is an important attribute of forest canopy architecture and affects the solar radiation regime within the canopy. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) has been increasingly used in LAD estimation. The point clouds data suffer from the occlusion effect, which leads to incomp...
