Airborne and handheld lidar biomass mapping
This project explored the use of lidar remote sensing for mapping aboveground biomass in piñon-juniper woodlands. The study compared the performance of airborne laser scanning (ALS) and mobile laser scanning (MLS) platforms. I contributed primarily to the field work supporting this study, gaining skills with ecological surveys, ArcGIS Field Maps, Survey 123, and mobile laser scanning (handheld lidar).
The published paper is available here.
