Low-cost phone-based LiDAR scanning technology provides sub-centimeter accuracy when measuring the main dimensions of motor-manual tree felling cuts by Stelian Alexandru Borz, Andrea Rosario Proto

“…However, volume loss estimates based on LiDAR scanning of tree bottoms are very sensitive to the accuracy of scans, while low-cost platforms may lack the capability to produce point clouds of an acceptable density at a reasonable distance. This study was setup to check to what extent proximal scanning by low-cost LiDAR platforms can provide accurate data to support the extraction and computation of volume loss by motor-manual tree felling. …”
