Note(s) : Airborne laser scanning (ALS) has emerged as one of the most promising remote sensing
technologies to provide data for research and operational applications in a wide range
of disciplines related to management of forest ecosystems. This book provides a comprehensive,
state-of-the-art review of the research and application of ALS in a broad range of
forest-related disciplines. However, this book is more than just a collection of individual
contributions - it consists of a well-composed blend of chapters dealing with fundamental
methodological issues and contributions reviewing and illustrating the use of ALS
within various domains of application. The main aim of this book is to provide the
scientific and technical background of ALS with a particular focus on applicability
in operational forestry. Most of the chapters are devoted to applications in forest
inventory and forest ecology such as forest management inventory and assessments of
canopy cover, habitats and organism-habitat relationships. Many of the chapters focus
on boreal forests simply because methods were initially developed for boreal conditions.
However, examples show the most common applications of ALS at various geographical
scales; from individual trees, to forest stands, regions and nations. The reviews
provide a comprehensive and unique overview of recent research and applications that
researchers, students and practitioners of forest remote sensing and forest ecosystem
assessment should consider as a useful reference text
