Comparing canopy metrics derived from terrestrial and airborne laser scanning in a Douglas-fir dominated forest stand

Accurate estimates of vegetation structure are important for a large number of applications including ecological modeling and carbon budgets. Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) measures the three-dimensional structure of vegetation using laser beams. Most LiDAR applications today rely on airborne p...
