Demarcation of River based on UAV LIDAR Point Cloud Data

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Abstract Delimiting the scope and boundary of river and lake management is the primary work of strengthening river and lake management, and is the precondition of water conservancy administration according to law. The precise scope of management and protection areas is defined for the purpose of regulating all activities within the area ...

UAV Data for herbaceous community’ aboveground biomass upscaling: a new perspective on LiDAR and multispectral information fusion

International Journal of Digital Earth
Large-scale aboveground biomass (AGB) monitoring based on remote sensing is crucial for herbaceous communities. This research fills the research gap of fusing LiDAR and multispectral fusion sensors for AGB upscaling, which addresses the scale mismatch ...

UAV‐Based Precision Seed Dropping for Automated Reforestation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfires and deforestation pose significant threats to forest ecosystems, motivating scalable methods for reforestation beyond labor‐intensive cultivation of native forest seedlings in nurseries. To enable large‐scale direct seeding of native species, this paper presents the design, analysis, and field evaluation of a UAV‐based seed‐dropping ...

Deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and improved YOLOv9 for efficient benthos detection: a case study at Lake Hamana, Japan

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a UAV‐based framework that integrates deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and an enhanced YOLO detector to improve centimetre‐scale benthic organism monitoring. Using hermit crabs in Lake Hamana, a coastal lagoon in Japan, as a case study, the method substantially enhanced small‐object detection performance ...

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 ...

Urban forest topographical mapping using UAV LIDAR

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2017
Topographical data is highly needed by many parties, such as government institution, mining companies and agricultural sectors. It is not just about the precision, the acquisition time and data processing are also carefully considered. In relation with forest management, a high accuracy topographic map is necessary for planning, close monitoring and ...

Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Pipeline Modeling using UAV LiDAR Technology

GEOID
Pipelines play an important role in operations in energy supply companies, whether geothermal, gas, or petroleum. Pipeline damage, such as corrosion, dents, and leaks caused by natural or human factors, must be detected. Problems with pipeline assets will indirectly impact high production prices.
