Application of UAV Photogrammetry with LiDAR Data to Facilitate the Estimation of Tree Locations and DBH values for High-Value Timber Species in Northern Japanese Mixed-Wood Forests

Application of UAV Photogrammetry with LiDAR Data to Facilitate the Estimation of Tree Locations and DBH values for High-Value Timber Species in Northern Japanese Mixed-Wood Forests

High-value timber species play an important economic role in forest management. The individual tree information for such species is necessary for practical forest management and for conservation purposes. Digital aerial photogrammetry derived from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV-DAP) can provide fin...
