Measurements of Surface-Layer Turbulence in a Wide Norwegian Fjord Using Synchronized Long-Range Doppler Wind Lidars

Remote Sensing, 2017
Three synchronized pulsed Doppler wind lidars were deployed from May 2016 to June 2016 on the shores of a wide Norwegian fjord called Bjørnafjord to study the wind characteristics at the proposed location of a planned bridge.

Wall‐to‐wall Amazon forest height mapping with Planet NICFI, Aerial LiDAR, and a U‐Net regression model

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Tree canopy height is a key indicator of forest biomass and structure, yet accurate mapping across the Amazon remains challenging. Here, we generated a canopy height map of the Amazon forest at ~4.8 m resolution using Planet NICFI imagery and a deep learning U‐Net model trained with airborne LiDAR data.

On the compatibility of single‐scan terrestrial LiDAR with digital photogrammetry and field inventory metrics of vegetation structure in forest and agroforestry landscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The single‐scan approach to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and the self‐terrain‐normalized form of drone‐based digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) offer practical options for rapid assessment of the vegetation structure in tropical landscapes.

Global Elevation Inversion for Multiband Spaceborne Lidar: Predevelopment of Forest Canopy Height

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Compared to single-band spaceborne lidars such as the global ecosystem dynamics investigation (GEDI) and Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2), multiband spaceborne lidars improve the detection of the canopy and ground.

Hyperspectral species maps and LiDAR‐based structured population models show future forest fire frequency may compromise forest resilience

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Monitoring forest recovery from disturbances at scale requires tracking tree dynamics, yet traditional ground‐based approaches are resource‐intensive. We present a pipeline to parameterize integral projection models (IPMs) using LiDAR data and hyperspectral‐based species maps to assess post‐fire recovery across large, forested areas at the Caribou ...

Multi-View Reconstruction Fusing Ultrasonic Phased Array and Camera for Mobile Robots in Simulation Environment

IEEE Access
Distance sensors are important for mobile robots to perceive surrounding environment. Typical sensors like LiDARs and depth cameras have been widely used, yet each has its limitations, such as LiDARs’ relatively high cost, depth cameras’ ...

Large‐scale characterization of horizontal forest structure from remote sensing optical images

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Sub‐meter resolution remote sensing data and tree crown segmentation techniques hold promise in offering detailed information that can support the characterization of forest structure from a horizontal perspective, offering new insights in the tree crown structure at scale.

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Rotatable Lens‐Based 3D Reconstruction Method for Monocular Vision Systems

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Accurate 3D reconstruction in confined environments remains challenging because conventional vision‐based measurement systems are difficult to maintain compactness without sacrificing accuracy. Here, the authors develop a rotatable lens‐based monocular vision system, which is the first time using the refraction of the light induced by a rotating wedge ...
