Moving to Automated Tree Inventory: Comparison of UAS-Derived Lidar and Photogrammetric Data with Manual Ground Estimates

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have advanced rapidly enabling low-cost capture of high-resolution images with cameras, from which three-dimensional photogrammetric point clouds can be derived. More recently UAS equipped with laser scanners, or lidar, have been employed to create similar 3D datasets...
