Title:
METHOD FOR PERFORMING FOREST MENSURATION, FOREST MENSURATION SYSTEM, METHOD FOR DETERMINING FLIGHT PATH OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE, IMAGE CAPTURING METHOD, DISPERSION METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/020569
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
According to the present invention, an unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with a LiDAR sensor is flown to perform forest mensuration of a forest on an inclined surface. The LiDAR sensor is mounted on the unmanned aerial vehicle in such a way that the axis of rotation or the axis of oscillation thereof faces in the direction of travel of the aircraft. The method for performing forest mensuration includes (i) scanning the forest using the LiDAR sensor while flying the unmanned aerial vehicle at a predetermined absolute altitude along a first contour line, and (ii) re-scanning the forest using the LiDAR sensor while flying the unmanned aerial vehicle at the predetermined absolute altitude along a second contour line different from the first contour line.
