From LiDAR Waveforms to Hyper Point Clouds: A Novel Data Product to Characterize Vegetation Structure

From LiDAR Waveforms to Hyper Point Clouds: A Novel Data Product to Characterize Vegetation Structure

Full waveform (FW) LiDAR holds great potential for retrieving vegetation structure parameters at a high level of detail, but this prospect is constrained by practical factors such as the lack of available handy processing tools and the technical intricacy of waveform processing. This study introduce...
