LiDAR Tree Detection and AGB Analysis in R

Project Overview

This project presents a LiDAR-based workflow in R for individual tree detection, crown segmentation, structural metrics extraction, and above-ground biomass (AGB) estimation.

The analysis demonstrates how point cloud data can be transformed into practical outputs for forestry analysis, vegetation assessment, and spatial decision support.

Key Features

  • Individual tree detection from LiDAR point cloud data
  • Crown segmentation using established algorithms
  • Extraction of structural forest metrics
  • Above-ground biomass (AGB) estimation
  • Visualization of LiDAR-derived outputs

Methods

This project applies:

  • Dalponte (2016) crown segmentation approach
  • Li (2012) tree detection and segmentation workflow
  • Black (2004) allometric equation for AGB estimation

Tools and Libraries

  • R
  • LiDAR data processing workflow
  • Spatial analysis and visualization tools

Skills Demonstrated

  • LiDAR point cloud analysis
  • Individual tree detection
  • Crown delineation and segmentation
  • Forest structural metrics extraction
  • Above-ground biomass estimation
  • Geospatial visualization and interpretation
