Comparative analysis of remote sensing and ground-based surveys in determining merchantable volume of a boreal forest stand
(2024)Accurate volume estimations are pivotal for effective forest resource management, influencing stakeholders throughout the forestry industry. Traditionally, estimations relied on stem diameter measurements and geometric ... -
Evaluating the application of LiDAR to measure wildland fire depth of burn In the Canadian boreal forest.
(2024)This study evaluates the accuracy of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology in measuring the depth of burn (DoB) resulting from wildland fires in the Canadian boreal forest. An analysis of the correlation between ... -
Exploring the potential to minimize forest road cost in Ontario with LiDAR and RoadENG
(2019)The objective of this study was to determine if light detection and ranging (LiDAR) and RoadENG could produce a more cost-effective road design than a field-based road design. A Triangulated irregular network (TIN) was ... -
Forest road location modelling with Dijkstra’s shortest path and ArcGIS
(2019)Road network modelling has great potential to reduce forest road construction and planning costs. Forest roads are the essential means to access forest resources and are one of the most expensive factors in forest ...
