Development of an automated individual tree detection model using point cloud LiDAR data for accurate tree counts in a Pinus radiata plantation

We develop and evaluate a new individual tree detection (ITD) algorithm to automatically locate and estimate the number of individual trees within a Pinus radiata plantation from relatively sparse airborne LiDAR point cloud data. The area of interest comprised stands covering a range of age classes...
