Quote of the day from @wakehurst_kew ecosystem observatory launch: Trees are such good pollen and nectar sources that we should think of them as ‘sky meadows’! Highlight of the day was the wet woodland plot - see 📸 Thanks @kungphil for inviting @WoodlandTrust

Branches were first stripped of their 🌿 then scanned in high-resolution. Full details of methods can be found in https://t.co/uFrwbMln2j

353 million points, 598 branches, 455 trees, 12 plots, 3 countries! All terrestrial LiDAR data and QSM models are now available open-access https://t.co/01mCotqAh2 Explore in 3D @Sketchfab:

We’ve been working in the #wetwoodland at @wakehurst_kew today installing dipwells for hydrological monitoring as part of the @wetwoodlands research network and supporting @batten_steph’s PhD. I’m excited to see what the data show!

Hidden giants: how the UK’s 500,000 redwoods put California in the shade
theguardian.com
Researchers found that the Victorians brought so many seeds and saplings to Britain that experts say the giant redwoods now outnumber those in their US homeland

It has been a great year of scanning for team @TLS_TREES 🌳 back in May we embarked on the @WoodlandTrust funded #SCATTER project. One of our faves was Wyesham Oak, Monmouth, here reimagined for 🎄🎅 @Sketchfab: https://t.co/nFgcL2MFNB

🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳 For those that need to segment trees from terrestrial LiDAR data, we present #tls2trees! Tested on 6 ha of @WythamWoods, we extracted 7615 trees using @cedanews HPC! Try for yourself https://t.co/xExKr1J802 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

By combining existing deep-learning, new graph methods and a scalable architecture, the pipeline developed in this study allows segmentation of individual tree point clouds from plot-level TLS point cloud data, regardless of tree or plot size. https://t.co/pbKwnzMcZ3

Trying to find trees in LiDAR data? Problem: 100s of algorithms but hard to assess their accuracy Solution: use segmented TLS to label trees in ALS, then compare algorithms. Paper: https://t.co/Z77ziFCrYX

📢 Announcing keynotes for @Silvilaser23 We are honoured to welcome @ymalhi, Andy Waddington @HexagonGeo and @ProfKateJones These promise to be great sessions that are "not just LiDAR and not just forests" but aim broaden to discourse on what can be achieved with #LiDAR!
