New framework reconstructs tree growth using multi-platform laser scanning

Researchers have developed a new framework to reconstruct individual tree growth using multi-platform laser scanning data. This method addresses challenges in boreal forest monitoring by enabling reliable tree delineation and correspondence across temporal point clouds. The framework estimates diameter at breast height (DBH) and stem volume growth, showing higher agreement with manual estimates than traditional differencing methods. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve the accuracy and efficiency of forest monitoring and ecological research.
