Estimating canopy fuel load with hemispherical photographs: A rapid method for opportunistic fuel documentation with smartphones

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 11, Page 2101-2108, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Canopy fuel load (CFL) affects wildfire intensity and is a critical input for fire behaviour models; however, measuring CFL in the field is time‐consuming and costly. Until recently, hemispherical photographs have been unable to adequately describe canopy metrics in non‐diffuse light conditions.
