Estimation of canopy cover in dense mixed-species forests using airborne lidar data

Airborne laser scanning (ALS) data and digital hemispherical photos (DHP) from 93 sample plots in Laeva test site, Estonia, were used to study effects of phenology and scan angle on the ALS-based canopy cover (CCALS) estimates. The relative share of first returns (P1/A) for 6185 forest stands was an...
