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...

Wood properties and use of sensor technology to improve optimal bucking and value recovery of Douglas-fir

Creator:: Acuna, Mauricio A.
Abstract:: There are a number of wood properties which affect the quality of forest products such as lumber and pulp. Of these, wood density is considered by some to be the single most important physical characteristic because it is an excellent predictor of strength, stiffness, hardness, and paper-making capacities. Accurately assessing...
