Abstract:
The paper describes a methodology for tree species classificationusing features that are derived from small?footprint full waveformLight Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data. First, 3?dimensional coordinatesof the laser beam reflections, the intensity, and the pulse widthare extracted by a waveform decomposition, which fits a series ofGaussian pulses to the waveform. Since multiple reflections are detected,and even overlapping pulse reflections are distinguished, a muchhigher point density is achi...     »
