Mauritia flexuosa palm trees airborne mapping with deep convolutional neural network [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Abstract Accurately mapping individual tree species in densely forested environments is crucial to forest inventory. When considering only RGB images, this is a challenging task for many automatic photogrammetry processes. The main reason for that is the spectral similarity between species in RGB scenes, which can
