Using satellite and airborne LiDAR to model woodpecker habitat occupancy at the landscape scale.

Incorporating vertical vegetation structure into models of animal distributions can improve understanding of the patterns and processes governing habitat selection. LiDAR can provide such structural information, but these data are typically collected via aircraft and thus are limited in spatial exte...
