forest3D
is a set of tools for analysing pointclouds of a forest. Updated form
of 3D-tools.
Running a packaged module as a script gives an error on the relative import; it is recommended to write a script which imports forestutils and calls forestutils.main()
Features:
- Detect, map, and extract trees from the full pointcloud
- Calculate location, height, canopy area, and colour of each tree
- Losslessly reduce pointcloud size by discarding ground points
It is written in pure Python (3.4+), available under the GPL3 license, and can analyse multi-gigabyte datasets in surprisingly little memory.
