Canopy Density
Automated image recognition offers various possibilities to analyze snapshots according to certain characteristics and thus how developments and temporal processes. In forestry this may be used to measure canopy density in order to obtain reliable and verifiable scales about the actual condition and development of a forest as a preparation for harvesting or to ensure accurate damage survey after catastrophes such as fire, storms or pests. Supported by our application ‘Canopy Density’ it is possible to determine the canopy density of a forest area out of photos taken from below in just three steps.
