Estimating volume and value on standing timber in hybrid poplar plantations using terrestrial laser scanning : a case study

Creator:

Barnett, Jennifer S.

Abstract:

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) may provide a way to increase timber value recovery by replacing manual timber cruising with a simple-to-use, cost-effective alternative. TLS has been studied in several trials worldwide. Past studies have not compared TLS based estimates with mill estimates of stem value and volume. Three differently stocked...
