Operationalizing the use of TLS in forest inventories:
The R Package FORTLS
Process automation of point cloud data derived from ground-based technologies such as LiDAR (e.g. Terrestrial Laser Scanner and Moblie Laser Scanner, TLS and MLS resectively) or photogrammetry. FORTLS enables (i) detection of trees and estimation of tree-level attributes (e.g. diameters and heights), (ii) estimation of stand-level variables (e.g. timber volume), (iii) computation of metrics related to important forest attributes, and (iv) optimization of plot design in forest inventories.
