Object-Based Classification of Abandoned Logging Roads under Heavy Canopy Using LiDAR

LiDAR-derived slope models may be used to detect abandoned logging roads in steep forested terrain. An object-based classification approach of abandoned logging road detection was employed in this study. First, a slope model of the study site in Marin County, California was created from a LiDAR deri...
