Abstract

The invention discloses a method for estimating the carbon content of urban trees based on multi-echo airborne laser scanning data, including: S1. Using a multi-spectral airborne laser scanner to scan urban trees to obtain multiple times Wave ALS point cloud data; S2. Preprocess the multi-echo ALS point cloud data of multiple airways to obtain nDSM data and intensity images of each laser channel; S3. Classify the nDSM data and extract the tree category data , obtain crown height model CHM; S4, estimate the shape parameter of tree by crown height model CHM, the shape parameter of described tree comprises crown height and crown diameter; S5, construct ALS-DBH regression model by empirical model earlier, then by on-the-spot selection Several tree samples were used for verification; S6, carbon content was estimated based on DBH and canopy height of all species. The invention is based on the tree shape parameters and allometric growth model of ALS, and can quickly and non-destructively estimate the carbon content of urban trees.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for estimating the carbon content of urban trees based on multi-echo airborne laser scanning data. Background technique [0002] With the growth of population, urbanization has become an unstoppable trend. As cities expand, ecology and ground attachments also change. Ground attachments have changed from the natural environment to various urban buildings, such as: impermeable roads, high-rise buildings, parks, etc. These transitions have raised some pressing issues, such as the urban heat island effect. Urban expansion and economic activity also increase energy consumption and lead to the release of greenhouse gases. And vegetation in cities plays an important role in improving the urban climate, for example, tree shade and wind shielding effects can reduce direct solar heat and air infiltration into houses. At the same time, urban vegetation stores a large amount of carbon, which can greatly reduce the urban heat i...
