Terrestrial Photogrammetric Reconstruction of Black Spruce (Picea mariana) Tree

This photogrammetric point cloud was constructed using a set of 12 spherical images taken at different heights at two locations around the tree. The tree is a black spruce (Picea mariana), with a diameter at breast height of 20.7 cm. The tree is located within Forest Management Unit S20 near the towns of Slave Lake and Swan Hills in Alberta, Canada. This research was funded by the AWARE (Assessment of Wood Attributes using Remote sEnsing) Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada Collaborative Research and Development grant to a team led by Dr. Nicholas Coops with support from West Fraser and Alberta Agriculture and Forestry.
